actually didn't think his statement was all that bad, some continuity issues and plot holes which mean it probably wouldn't have gotten out of any writers room... but taking questions has definitely been a mistake, has made him look more weaselly

When challenged over his decision not to speak to the prime minister before driving to Durham, he said he wanted to protect Boris Johnson’s time.

the statement would probably have done the job on Friday night, but he can't see himself as accountable

he should've stayed in durham. the advice was stay home, work remotely if you can. no reason why he could not have worked remotely for a week or two

Dominic Cummings REFUSES to apologise and has NOT offered to resign for breaking lockdown to drive 260 miles to Durham without PM's permission - despite admitting he DID go to bluebell woods and Barnard Castle to 'check if he felt better'

Literally the only thing the media might have got wrong is him going back to Durham, he's admitted to everything else they said.

yes, people were being fined and turned back from driving to holiday homes. how was that any different?
did the 'exceptional circumstances' clause exist? have they retconned it?
