It's a breach of Ofcom's broadcasting code - this is fucking serious - the club needs to be involved and everyone who saw that bulletin on SSN needs to complain to Ofcom themselves.
Broadcasting Code
These rules not only cover harm and offence, but also other areas like impartiality and accuracy, sponsorship and commercial references as well as fairness and privacy.
For example, the Code has rules on what can be screened on TV before the 9pm watershed.
If we find a programme has broken these rules, then it will be found in breach of the Code and Ofcom will publish this decision.
In very serious cases, we will consider further action (e.g. fining a broadcaster).
