This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition Tell Ofcom to require the BBC to debate The China Study properly and impartially
Rejected on
A recent BBC Horizon documentary misrepresented Dr T Colin Campbell's findings in The China Study. Ofcom's ruling (ref 00433122) on my complaint to the BBC was unacceptable. See petition text: http://wholistnutrition.com/bbc-campaign/4-uk-government-and-parliament-petition-text
Ofcom is "Accountable to Parliament" (https://www.ofcom.org.uk/about-ofcom/what-is-ofcom).
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Ofcom is accountable to Parliament, but the Government and Parliament cannot instruct it to take action in this way.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
