From my e-mail in-box ...

Quote:
Thank you for your complaint to the Press Complaints Commission. We have received a number of complaints in relation to this matter.

Given the nature of the situation, you will understand that we have to bear in mind the wishes of the family of the pilot concerned. In the first instance, we will therefore seek to determine whether the family wishes to complain. We will endeavour to be in touch once we are aware of the position.

self explanatory methinks
I don't agree with that logic. While I fully respect the family's wishes, I would hate to see the Mail get off just because the family do not wish to complain. They may quite understandably feel they have more pressing matters to deal with at the moment.

We need to think about the next family who end up having distress piled on distress because of the Mail's disregard for their feelings.
