Legal campaigners at Good Law Project have launched a legal challenge against broadcast regulator Ofcom, arguing that the public body has failed to take action to stop Murdoch-owned station Talk (formerly TalkTV and TalkRadio) from allegedly “breaking the law with a torrent of misinformation and transphobic hate.”
Ofcom received complaints from Good Law Project and 21,000 of its supporters on 18 July 2025 about 11 programmes broadcast on Talk, complaining about how the programmes, its presenters and guests discussed transgender issues. Talk is broadcast on radio and as video online, after News UK shuttered its loss-making TV operations in 2024.
Ofcom decided not to investigate any of the complaints in September. In October 2025, GLP wrote to Ofcom raising a number of questions about Ofcom’s response to their complaints. GLP also highlighted potential concerns about three of the programmes under the Broadcasting Code.
Does this logic also apply to human corpses? Like if I go to a morgue…
