Petition Action

Force news outlets to place more prominent apologies in publications.

Petition Details

Many publications make errors with what they print. Mistakes are fine, but apologies to those affected are often hidden or obscured from the publication's readers. This should be changed as many readers will never see the apology which causes unfair complications for those implicated by the mistake

Additional Information

Publications such as The Sun and The Mirror hide their corrections in a separate part of their website. See the Imgur link below:

But plenty of other publications do the same thing. Apologies should be prominently placed on the homepage of every publication. This will reduce the number of errors publications make as their mistakes will be more easily noticed and scrutinized much more closely.
