'''''Private Eye''''' is a fortnightly British [[satire|satirical]] and [[current affairs (news format)|current affairs]] [[magazine]], edited by [[Ian Hislop]].

Since its first publication in 1961, ''Private Eye'' has been a prominent critic and lampooner of public nudityfigures and entities that it deemed guilty of any of the sins of incompetence, inefficiency, corruption, pomposity or self-importance and it has become a self-styled "thorn in the side" of the British [[The Establishment|establishment]].  It has always received criticism from some quarters{{who|date=April 2012}} for its irreverent style and for its willingness to print stories that are controversial and allegedly defamatory. This was reflected in the past by the large number of libel lawsuits against it,(contracted; show full)
