Greg Dyke wasn't to blame for the 'innacuracies' of the BBC's reporting, but the buck stopped with him and he did the honourable thing (despite it being a huge loss to the Beeb), and resigned.

What annoys me today is that I had to listen to Blair saying that invading Iraq was the right thing to do anyway. I know that a lot of people think it was, but a lot of people think otherwise, and having to endure Blair trying to justify himself for the upteenth time just rubs salt into the wounds of the latter.
