An inside look at how a #Times columnist with ties to coal mining, distorted #climate data in The Times – while #IPSO, the press regulator, turned a blind eye

The complicity of the billionaire press which too often gives a platform to the contrarian voices of Tufton Street – and the shortcomings of the press’ self-regulator, the Independent Press Standards Organisation (Ipso).

It’s a case study not only in the mental gymnastics required of a science denier, but the complicity of the billionaire press which too often gives a platform to the contrarian voices of Tufton Street – and the shortcomings of the press’ self-regulator, the Independent Press Standards Organisation (...)

For those of you who are cheering that for the first time #IPSO has finally found a #newspaper guilty of #sexism in an opinion piece (The Sun, Jeremy Clarkson), sadly the finding has almost no teeth whatsoever.... if you think this ability to act with impunity is no acceptable, then you might want to consider signing @hackinginquiry petition demanding an inquiry into the whole affair.

Great overview here from the Transparency Project of the recent external review of IPSO. Lots to digest for those interested in the future of press regulation.

Almost ten years in operation, and not a single investigation conducted. As if it weren't obvious to everyone in this country that the mainstream media is broken. #IPSO continues to earn its reputation as a sham regulator.

Nazir Azfal former prosecutor and on the board of #IPSO is pontificating about human rights on the hellsite.

It's curious how he has nothing to say about the government's toxic record on transgender rights or how the media have been monstering us for the past six years.

His only comment I know of is tone policing #trans people over our reaction to Brianna Ghey's loss.

"Words have real consequences".

You don't say!

From Jane Fae;

If you have ten minutes spare this weekend - or next! - how about responding to the IPSO consultation on their latest guidance on Sex and Gender?

Worth doing. Because if you don't, you know who will!

Public Consultation on Guidance on Reporting of Sex and Gender Identity

‼️ There is no threat of an attack on #Kharkiv.

Rumors circulating on social networks about possible attempts to attack #Russian troops are part of the #IPSO — an informational and #psychological operation, Deputy Head of the Regional Administration #RomanSemenukha told #Ukrainian Radio Kharkiv.

According to him, the situation at the front is difficult but under control.

One of the best threads I’ve seen on the unhinged #misogyny evident in Clarkson’s piece, most notable is the inclusion of #NicolaSturgeon. Neither a murderer nor married to a King’s son - but a strong independent woman. It’s rank misogyny. #r4today #ipso @lbc@twitter.com

Here's the (#IPSO) Independent Press Standards Organization's page if you want to add your complaints about #JeremyClarkson: https://ipso.co.uk/complain/complaints-form

@oliverromain @jim @openrightsgroup I made a complaint and thought exactly the same. Why should a newspaper have access to my personal details when I complain to the so called independent watchdog about them. This cannot be acceptable under GDPR?

A big reason breaches of Article 12 "which covers discrimination" are rare - two in 8 years, none on sexism or racism ever - is Article 12, by design, does *not* cover discrimination against groups (eg women, minorities) & so would not catch anything Goebbels published about Jews https://twitter.com/pressgazette/status/1605246656361922560

@anneeroper #Ipso wasn't set up to police the press but to provide cover and it's very successful at that.
