A thread for the occasional fun that can be found in the Ofcom Broadcast Bulletins.
I was amused this month by Venus TV (a station owned by a pastor) reporting MATV (another station owned by a different pastor) for the latter claiming that the former did not pay back a loan! The evidence submitted included receipts for the amount that 'Brother Henry' had been paid (£1,460). There is also some confusion as to whether MATV were referring to 'Mr Ali', the owner of Venus TV, as a reference was made to the 'white owner' and Ofcom can clarify that Mr Ali "was not a white man".
And let's not forget, it's our money that funded that investigation...
