Complainant Name:
A man

Clauses Noted: 1

Publication: Press & Journal (Aberdeen)

Complaint:

A man complained that an article had inaccurately claimed that his partner had set up the website businessperthshire.com and that she owned the company Sundial Creative. The complainant explained that the inaccuracy had caused a considerable amount of distress to his partner.

Resolution:

The complaint was resolved when the newspaper published a correction making clear that the complainant’s partner had not set up businessperthshire.com and that she did not own Sundial Creative. The correction emphasised that the complainant’s partner had no legal involvement in either enterprise, and apologised for the error.

Report: 73
