Ciar Byrne Wednesday November 5, 2003 Daily Star: investigated under clause one of PCC's code of practice, which covers accuracy The Press Complaints Commission is investigating a front-page story in the Daily Star headlined "Asylum seekers eat our donkeys" following a complaint that it inaccurately claimed donkey meat is a delicacy in Somalia. The watchdog is acting after a Somalian complained the story, published on August 31, was nonsense because eating donkey meat is forbidden in Somalia under Islamic law. A spokesman for the PCC confirmed it was investigating under clause one of its code of practice, which covers accuracy. However, the commission rejected complaints from up to six other people. One reader, Andy Platt, protested the article presented the allegation of donkey eating as fact and was discriminatory in its treatment of asylum seekers. The PCC threw out his complaint, saying it felt the allegation was clearly presented as comment and so did not breach clause one. The Star's headline was based on a comment about the investigation of the theft of nine donkeys from Greenwich royal park. The story said: "Asylum seekers have stolen nine donkeys and police believe they've killed and eaten them." A police insider is quoted as saying: "One of our main lines of inquiry is that they may have been taken by immigrants who like eating donkey meat as a delicacy." The PCC said: "The commission considered that, in the context of the article as a whole, the allegation was clearly presented as comment from an attributed source and readers would not necessarily have been misled into thinking this was the only possible explanation of the matter." It added that clause 13 of the code, which deals with discrimination, only exists to protect individuals and not groups and no individuals were named in the Star story. Peter Hill, the editor of the Daily Star, sits on the commission but has not taken part in any discussions about the complaints concerning his newspaper. Last month the PCC issued guidelines about the way newspapers cover the asylum issue, warning editors against using the term "illegal asylum seeker". Here the link if you wanaa complain.

Diaspora_Dude Posted January 13, 2004 Somalis are used as a scape-goat due to the fact, the real donkey eaters are infact none but themselves "White Dudes in England"........... Further Note: What they are doing is normalizing the issue at first hand so nobody in their community would think this is an obscene habits..
