Petition to ban the mention of a criminal's religion in all forms of media
This petition is a petition to ban the disclosure of a criminal's faith or religion by the media, as it is felt that it in no way adds any insight or real information to a story. It has led to a strain in interfaith relations, and has led to extremist groups being formed, targeting the faith as a whole because of the actions of a small percent. We must push the government to ban this for the good of the people and the state.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
This is a matter for media organisations and newspapers to decided upon: the Government cannot tell them what they should do. There are already laws against religious discrimination.
