The Press Complaints Commission is dead! Long live the 404 page. Er wut?
by Martin Belam, October 14, 2014 For years and years I blogged on here and on currybet.net that the PCC was totally unsuited to regulating the press in the era of the internet.
And what a fitting epitaph.
Go to their website, and you’ll see that the PPC has closed, and IPSO is now running the show.
Click the link to go to the IPSO website.
And get a 404 because the PCC fucked up the hyperlink on the final thing they published on the web.
Genius.
