Hester Report post Posted April 16, 2016 I don't know if you guys noticed but the Beeb news website poste a couple of articles last week that nonesenically linked ASD to violent crimes. I've written a blog post on it to explain the details. Please do have a look and if you agree with me take ten minutes to tell them that this is not ok! https://starlingkestrel.wordpress.com/2016/04/16/dear-bbc-we-are-not-murderers/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jack schitt Report post Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) Complaining to the offending organisation will likely result in tactical avoidance and cover up. Major organisations have huge budgets, staffing resources, internal/external legal departments dedicated to this. I'm not familiar with the 'independent?' regulating bodies who may be a better source of challenge .... Ofcom? Fairness generally doesn't exist, only the law. There is the Equalities Act 2010, Protection from Harassment act 1997 and probably others ... There are certainly issues about inciting hatred and provoking prejudice ... its what the media routinely do Edited April 16, 2016 by jack schitt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
