Rejected petition Who owns our British newspapers and should there be more honesty in the press?

Should there be an investigation into press ownership? Should there be closer evaluation on what is printed? Millions of newspapers are distributed all over the UK daily. They have a massive impact on public opinion, but are newspapers being influenced by interests that conflict with British values?
