Al Jazeera's journalism has been vindicated in four landmark rulings issued by Britain’s Office of Communications, known as Ofcom. The lengthy decisions published on the regulatory body’s website addressed a number of complaints made against Al Jazeera's award-winning Investigative Unit, which produced the January 2017 undercover series "The Lobby". The films made front-page news headlines across Britain and worldwide after it exposed the Israeli Embassy's covert influence campaign to smear and attack British citizens critical of Israel and its practices—including against British Foreign Office Minister Sir Alan Duncan.
