The emperor’s new clothes – IPSO’s version of the editors’ code of practice

Keppel-Palmer, Marcus

Abstract

The new version of the Editors’ Code of Conduct was published in December 2015, the first new version of the Code since the formation of IPSO and the first since the Leveson Inquiry on Press Standards criticised the PCC, the effectiveness of the Code and the need for a re-statement of press ethics, professionalism and standards. Those expecting root and branch change will be disappointed in this repudiation of Leveson.
