The U.K.’s media watchdog found that Jeremy Clarkson’s column in The Sun about Meghan Markle violated a clause in the Editors’ Code of Practice, which relates to discrimination. The Sun has been instructed to reference the decision on its front page.
can reveal that after a months-long process, IPSO found that the “Grand Tour” host’s column breached Clause 12 of the regulator’s Editors’ Code of Practice, which relates to discrimination. The case marks the first time in its nine-year history that IPSO has upheld a complaint on the basis of sexism.
IPSO received more than 25,100 complaints from the British public about Clarkson’s column — an astonishing figure that broke the record for the most complaints ever received by the org for an article. The column led, the streamer won’t commission any new programs with the former “Top Gear” presenter in the future. While Clarkson has thrown doubt on this decision via social media, sources indicate that the relationship is over.
Clause 12 of the Editors’ Code of Practice, in particular, receives special attention from IPSO, which says the press “must avoid prejudicial or pejorative reference to a person’s race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation or to any physical or mental illness or disability.” The regulator’s rejection of discrimination on racial grounds will be of particular interest in the U.K., where racism in the media has been a key criticism by Prince Harry and Markle.
Olchawski said the decision will help to elevate “the state of public discourse about women and tackle misogyny in our media.” The Sun then went to the third-party Independent Complaints Reviewer, which did not uphold their request for review. How often does this body get involved?
