Family Law Fact: Facing harassment from the media
-------------------------------------------------



The reported suicide of Caroline Flack, the Love Island presenter, at the start of 2020 following a prolonged campaign of harassment again highlighted the issues faced by celebrities, royalty and wealthy individuals in relation to unwanted media attention. Journalists seeking the next big news story are often accused of crossing the line into harassment. Harassment from anyone can cause distress for those it is aimed at and where it is the media it can be particularly upsetting.

Legal advice on press intrusion and intimidation
------------------------------------------------

Newspapers are not allowed to harass individuals just to get information for a story. Media intrusion and harassment is a concern for those that are in the limelight and there are various routes that can be pursued where people are feeling harassed.

[Most national newspapers and magazines](https://www.ipso.co.uk/complain/who-ipso-regulates/) are regulated by the Independent Press Standards Organisation ([IPSO](https://www.ipso.co.uk/)). IPSO enforces the [Editors Code of Practice](https://www.ipso.co.uk/editors-code-of-practice/), which sets out the minimum expectations in relation to the conduct of those that are employed by these publications. The Code covers the following issues:

- Accuracy
- [Privacy](https://vardags.com/reputation-privacy/services/data-privacy)
- [Harassment](https://vardags.com/law-guide/harassment/facing-harassment-from-the-media)
- Intrusion into grief or shock
- Reporting suicide
- Children
- Children in sex cases
- Hospitals
- Reporting of a crime
- Clandestine devices and subterfuge- this means that information must not be obtained using hidden cameras or listening devices or intercepting private communications.
- Victims of sexual assault
- Discrimination
- Financial journalism
- Confidential sources
- Witness payments in criminal trials
- Payment to criminals
- The public interest
