PRESS RELEASE OF THE COMPLAINTS COMMISSION
The Complaints Commission of the Press Council primarily adjudicates on editorial content of the press and online media, about news articles and self-regulation mechanisms within the journalism profession, and not on the overall communication amongst online media users. This communication is, unfortunately, very often on a very low level of communication culture and presents a high degree of intolerance of all kinds.
This time, the Complaints Commission again notes that such manner of communication is unacceptable and again appeals to the responsible authorities, the police and prosecution, to identify and process the persons who are committing crimes by spreading hate speech through online media
