Seven complaints were upheld by the Press Ombudsman, with two surrounding the coverage of Covid, although one was later successfully appealed

"While there is no rule to say that complaints cannot be submitted in such a fashion, there is no benefit to such campaigns."

"Common to the majority of complaints that were received about Covid-19 articles was that they were the subject of quite a vigorous Facebook campaign by an anonymous Facebook group. The Facebook group provided the text of complaints for submission to the Office in respect of a number of articles, and urged followers to submit a complaint to the Press Ombudsman.
