Mr Dacre said the "left-wing media" had been gripped by "collective hysteria" over the story
Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre has defended his paper over a piece which called Labour leader Ed Miliband's father "the man who hated Britain".
Writing in the Guardian and the Mail, he said the headline about the late Marxist academic Ralph Miliband was "controversial" but "justifiable".
Ed Miliband had said he was "appalled" and the accusation was a "lie".
Mr Dacre also criticised "the Mail's bete noir, the BBC" for "a one-sided tone" in its reporting of the story.
He said that had "allowed Labour to misrepresent Geoffrey Levy's article on Ralph Miliband".
The BBC has previously defended its coverage of what it called a significant political story, describing it as "appropriate, balanced and impartial".
The original article, published on 1 October, questioned how the beliefs of Marxist Ralph Miliband, who died in 1994, may have influenced the Labour leader and his brother, former Foreign Secretary David Miliband.
