A well-reasoned answer, but not the right one.
The truth is, I have a massive backlog of news items that I have started clearing this week. The ones dated 19th October on our news page are stories that broke throughout the first half of this month. In the next day or three I'll manage to get all the rest of them up.
However: All the items I post up are based on my daily Google news email subscription which is based on the keywords 'Virgin Media'. So the ASA story would have to have been covered elsewhere before I would spot it and be in a position to add it here. Obviously there is a thread on it here now, which means I'm aware of the story and can write something up for it even if I don't find anything on it as I go through my emails.
But in future, if you ever find there's a story missing from our news pages, the reason will be some combination of the factors above, not a decision that it fails to meet our editorial guidelines ... not least because we don't have any editorial guidelines, other than that the story needs to be directly relevant to VM or its industry.
HTH.
