UK issues £1 million fine to adult platform for failing to comply with age verification rules

Letter from Cambodia - munching mince pies by the Mekong : 2004 : BBC World Service Trust, Phnom Penh

Dear John
Since we last spoke before Xmas, I have made a move …. to Phnom Penh. I am writing this sitting on a hotel balcony overlooking the Mekong River. How did this happen? Nearly two years ago, when I was living in Brighton, I was interviewed by the BBC World Service Trust for a job managing their projects in... [continues]

“The #SocialMedia ban for under-16s is going to stop teenagers from watching a lot of things: clips from their favourite shows, sports highlights, gaming reviews and just about anything else you can imagine.

What hasn’t been discussed much is the impact it will have on young people’s ability to access #news and #information.” — #LeoPuglisi

The social media ban will leave young Australians in the dark on news and politics. It’s not fair

So many teenagers learn about the big stories through TikTok and Instagram. They won’t suddenly turn to newspapers and TV bulletins

The Guardian

Interesting that only #ITV #Border still has a longer regional programme like this and not any other regions - I wonder why, have they been forced to make it by #Ofcom or is it simply due to a fear of competition from #STV (given the location of the region?) #TV #England #Scotland

Two weeks ago, GB News interviewed President Trump

Trump was given free rein to peddle lies about the climate crisis & crime in London, call London Mayor Sadiq Khan a "nasty person", rant about the BBC & describe immigrants as "scum"

The GB News ‘journalist’ didn’t challenge a word

That’s not good enough

GB News legally has to ensure it is impartial & doesn't spread false information

Please consider adding your name to this complaint to OFCOM

OFCOM: INVESTIGATE GB NEWS’ SHOCKING TRUMP INTERVIEW

GB News’ recent Trump interview was outrageous - completely biased and full of lies. And GB News didn't challenge him ONCE. Ofcom MUST investigate them for breaching its rules. Sign now if you agree.

🕵️‍♂️🚔 Ofcom's latest saga continues with their attempt to enforce their imaginary #superpowers across the pond. Preston Byrne gleefully spills the tea, exposing Ofcom's literary genius in crafting letters that redefine legal illiteracy. 📜🙄
