Petition Action

Make fake news reporting by the media a criminal offence.

Petition Details

Fake news stories should never make it to broadcast status or be publicised.
All corporate media outlets whether broadcast news or printed should have to verify, validate and publicise their sources for reports or face criminal charges and heavy financial penalties for disseminating fake news.

Additional Information

Fake news is a scourge and has been for some considerable time.
It creates distrust of information that is supposed to inform the public.
News media outlets are no longer reliable sources of unbiased news, they are in fact attempting to make news and drive public opinion politically in directions favourable to their owners own views.
The aim of the media is apparently to hold governments and others to account, yet no one is holding the media to account for faking news reports.
