By paulmcnally

TalkSport attracted more complaints last year than any other UK radio station, according to a report in radio industry trade weekly The Radio Magazine.

The report, based on Ofcom’s complaints bulletins in 2007, found the national talk station attracted 140 complaints, ranging from claims of dangerous behaviour and offensive language to bias and religious offence. Only three of these were upheld.

The most complained-about BBC station was Radio 4, which attracted 75 complaints, none of which were upheld.
