Stop the media repeatedly targeting demographics with a protected characteristic

Stop the media repeatedly targeting demographics with a protected characteristic — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

The UK media has repeatedly and persistently been targetting a number of groups of people who have a protected characteristic for over a decade now. The IPSO will not do anything about this because they cannot see a problem with it..

Additional details

Either get IPSO to do their job properly or put some other regulatory body or framework in place to prevent the media from running sometimes dozens of defamatory news stories each week about groups of people that are not only harassing in nature, but are also misleading or objectively wrong in content and, also calculated to get others to hate, abuse or attack these demographics.
