"Jeremy Clarkson's Sexist Column on Meghan Markle Sparks Controversy and Ruling by U.K. Press Regulator"

British TV personality Jeremy Clarkson has been censured by the Independent Press Standards Organization (IPSO) for a controversial column he wrote about Meghan Markle, in which he described imagining her being publicly humiliated. The column breached the editors' code of practice by containing a pejorative and prejudicial reference to Markle's sex. As part of the penalty, the Sun newspaper, where the column was published, has been instructed to publish a summary of the findings against it and flag the ruling on its front page and online. The column received over 25,100 complaints and was the most complained-about article to IPSO since its establishment in 2014. Women's rights nonprofit groups brought the formal complaint, calling the decision a historic victory against misogyny in the media. IPSO did not uphold elements of the complaint related to inaccuracy, harassment, and discriminatory references based on race.
