One of my bugbears in the past has been the lack of transparency regarding complaints to the PCC. Now Hacked Off has used the PCC's own data to come up with a table that lists complaints against individual newspapers. The article makes interesting reading. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/professor-brian-cathcart/pcc-complaint-statistics_b_4701685.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular

Where's the Daily Express? And the Daily Star? No complaints against them at all, then? confused

Interesting that the editor of the Dailu Mail, Paul Dacre, is on the committee and the DM has most complaints.
Of course they will not publish the statistics.
