Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

We propose that the correction articles or apologies must legally be the same size and on the same page/s as the original article to avoid the public being mislead, and that the wording of the apology or correction be written by IPSO to ensure freedom from editorial bias.
We want newspapers such as the sun who made publication of horrifific pictures of fans dyin being crushed we want it made a law that if such a paper should do this and found to be slanderous should be persecuted by law regarding the context of the lies the truth has been given it was a guilty verdict why should the sun paper get away with it if we can't ban we want a full apology and for them to withdraw sale of it in Liverpool by the time I've finished I will have every shop not selling YNWA 96
