The Press Complaints Comission has warned newspaper editors not to report any details of Susan Boyle’s health.
The PCC sent an email to all newspapers reminding them of it’s code of practise.
Syco, a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment, who Susan Boyle is now represented by, requested that the PPC politely draw the media’s attention to it’s concerns.
The email said:
We have been contacted by the media representative of Susan Boyle, who recently appeared on the programme Britain’s Got Talent
[They are] concerned about the publication of details about Ms Boyle’s health and treatment. [They have] referred to clause 3 (privacy) of the code and asked the PCC to pass on [their] concerns so that editors can take them into consideration for the future.
