IPSO RULINGS 2021

 IPSO RULINGS 2021


DAILY STAR ACCURACY BREACH 2021

'Greedy granny' story

Complainants noted she wasn't granny; amount stolen wrong; wrong home town

Clause 1 Accuracy(note: IPSO publish details for public, including guidance on clauses!!! BBFC too!)
Star had offered to publish correction; complainants didn't accept it; 

IPSO ruled SOME inaccuracy; said correction was sufficient
Took EIGHT months to rule!!!!

arguably: reputation damage already done?

this was an issue with PCC...which was even slower!
