Complaint
A viewer complained that the presenter incorrectly described the Lake District National Park as 鈥渙ur biggest national park鈥.聽 The ECU considered the complaint in relation to the 大象传媒鈥檚 editorial standards of due accuracy.
Outcome
The Lake District National Park is the biggest in England and Wales, but the biggest in the UK is the Cairngorms National Park.聽 In the context of a programme addressed to a UK audience, the presenter鈥檚 description fell below the 大象传媒鈥檚 standards of due accuracy.聽 However, the ECU noted that, as well as the error having been acknowledged in correspondence with the complainant, a correction had been added to the iPlayer version of the programme and the programme itself had been amended for any future transmission.聽 In the ECU鈥檚 judgement, these steps were sufficient to resolve the issue of complaint.
