“Apology not accepted.” In doing so, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex dismiss the mea culpa of The Sun magazine, which is responsible for publishing an article Jeremy Clarkson in which he claimed to “hate” Meghan Markle. Last week’s column became the Independent Press Standards Organization’s most criticized article, with more than 17,500 people contacting it to complain. Up to 60 parliamentarians wrote to the publisher Victoria Newtonto demand an official apology and action against the journalist, particularly for the part where he said “Meghan should have paraded the streets naked”. After the controversy, the Sun decided to remove the article himself at the request of the author, accompanying the gesture with an official apology: “Columnists’ opinions are their own, but as editors we do We are aware that with freedom of expression comes responsibility. We at the Sun regret the publication of this article and sincerely regret it. The article has been removed from our website and archives.” The ducal couple is now responding to the apologies through the spokesman: “Nothing but a publicity stunt“, you said. One of the parts of Clarkson’s article that caused the most scandal is the one about thehatred towards Meghan: «I dream of the day when she will be forced to parade naked through the streets of every city in Britain while the crowd chants: ‘Shame on you!’ while throwing clumps of excrement at her.” The Sussex spokesman says Meghan was not personally contacted for a direct apology. “The fact that the Sun has not contacted the Duchess of Sussex to apologize shows her intentions is nothing more than a publicity stunt,” he said. “The public absolutely deserves the release apology for i dangerous commentsWe wouldn’t be in this situation if the sun didn’t continue to profit and exploit hatred, violence and misogyny. A sincere apology would be a change in their ethical standards for everyone.”
