Jeremy Clarkson's Meghan diatribe in The Sun was sexist, rules press regulator
Jeremy Clarkson’s article professing his “hatred” of Meghan Markle in The Sun was sexist, “pejorative and prejudicial” against the Duchess of Sussex, the press regulator has ruled. The Independent Press Standards Organisation (Ipso) said the newspaper broke press standards by running the article, in which Clarkson described how he hated her on a “cellular level”. Ipso ordered The Sun to publish a front-page statement explaining how Clarkson broke anti-discrimination rules, which also ran online.

Catherine Mayer, co-founder of the Women’s Equality Party, said: “It’s so obvious that Jeremy Clarkson's diatribe against Meghan was sexist that it’s odd Ipso had to investigate to reach that conclusion. She added: “The real issue is how such pieces are commissioned and signed off and why journalism is getting shriller and more abusive.” Domestic abuse campaigner David Challen wrote on Twitter: “The real headline should be @IpsoNews takes 7 months to come to glaringly obvious conclusion. Yet another nail in the coffin of our toothless press regulator.” And Lawrence Davies, chief executive of nonprofit Equal Justice, added: “We won on sexism. Can’t see why it wasn’t racist though.” Clarkson wrote that he disliked Meghan more than the serial killer Rose West and dreamed of the day “when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant ‘shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her”. The Fawcett Society gender equality charity, which made the initial complaint to Ipso, said the ruling is a “landmark decision” about a “vile and offensive” column. The ruling is the first time a complaint to Ipso about discrimination relating to someone’s sex has been upheld, the regulator said. Clarkson’s article attracted more than 25,000 complaints when it was published in December, and was swiftly pulled from the internet. A spokesperson for The Sun said the company regretted publishing the column, pointing to high female readership at the newspaper, as well as its campaigns on domestic abuse and the cost of being a young mother. Ipso chairman Lord Faulks said the imagery used in the article was “humiliating and degrading” towards Meghan. Among the critics of the article at the time were Clarkson’s daughter, while the Duke of Sussex called it “horrific, hurtful and cruel”. Have your say in our news democracy.

Wes Anderson admits that he's never seen a TikTok video including one's imitating him
No, Wes Anderson hasn't been scrolling on the For You page, as the filmmaker revealed that he has never seen a TikTok - despite there being an entire trend about his films. The 54-year-old is widely known for his distinctive cinematic style in terms of cinematography, colour design and composition, and some of his films include The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014), The French Dispatch (2021), and most recently Asteroid City (2023) and many more. Earlier this year, a TikTok trend emerged where people filmed their mundane activities with symmetrical shots and quirky music and it all began with TikToker @avawillyums who filmed her train journey emulating the movie director. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The hashtag "Wes Anderson Trend," now has over 216m views, however despite the virality of the trend, Anderson himself still hasn't seen a single TikTok. @avawillyums With a good imagination, everything is symmetrical. Let a girl day dream! #wesanderson Speaking to The Daily Beast, he confessed when asked about the emergence of AI-generated trailers that reimagine classic movies such as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Dune in his cinematic style. "I’ve only been exposed to it verbally. I haven’t seen any of it," he said. "Obviously, it’s easy for me to go to the right web page and see it. I choose not to really engage. I guess it’s because I don’t want to get distracted by that." He added: "It’s a bit like if you’re told, 'Your friend does a great version of you.' Maybe you say, I’d really like to see it, and maybe you say, I don’t want to see a version of me, even if it’s good. It can be like, “Is that me?” That’s not necessarily the thing you want." It was after this that he mentioned how he hadn't seen a single TikTok video. Anderson said: "At some point, I’m sure I’ll go in there and see. But I’ve never seen a TikTok, for instance, of anything. I’m not going to start with me. [laughs]" Meanwhile, Anderson's latest film Asteroid City (2023) is set to be released on June 19 and stars Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Steve Carell, Hope Davis, Live Schreiber, Rupert Friend, Hong Chau, Maya Hawke, Stephen Park, Willem Dafoe, and Margot Robbie.
