Our proposal for third party complaints to support those who cannot easily speak for themselves or to address cumulative and systematic demeaning and vilification has been endorsed by Lord Justice Leveson's recommendation that "what is clearly required is that any such p57 hoodia buy regulator the power to take complaints from representative women's groups". But who will champion a more responsible future system if the processes and discussions remain secretly negotiated among the same old boys' club?
The fact that women are being silenced either because of a lack of meaningful press coverage or the demeaning tone of coverage has also been noted in the discussion of the portrayal of women in the media generally.
The good news perhaps is that through the open Leveson p57 hoodia slimming capsule hearings, there appears to be much more awareness of the workings of some elements of the press and the sort of unacceptable reporting being defended in some quarters. Journalism students I spoke to recently themselves highlighted the coverage by some newspapers of the killing of Reeva Steenkamp as an example of how not to report on crimes of violence against women. Heartening in the public debate has been the overwhelming support for press freedom, but concern that we also need a responsible press that preserves not only our access to justice, but also our democracy.
