An online petition calling for voyeurism site STOMP to be shut down is gaining traction.

As of Monday morning, April 7, 2014 -- some 12 hours after the petition started -- it had accumulated 8,000 signatures.

By 3pm on the same day, about 18 hours after the petition went live, it had an excess of 11,000 supporters.

Frustration with STOMP is not surprising since Singaporeans have had enough with the Singapore Press Holdings-owned web portal.

The person who started the petition, Robin Li, highlighted two high profile cases where the lack of ethics in STOMP's misreporting and propagating of lies was at its most blatant:

1. A photo on STOMP was cropped to make it look as if the man dressed in army uniform did not give up his seat to an elderly woman.

2. In 2012, a STOMP content producer fabricated news about how an MRT train was moving with one set of its doors open. She was later fired.

And besides these two incidents, STOMP has been known to target Full-Time National Servicemen (NSFs) by painting them in bad light, as well as stealing content that has been established to be false and republishing it as real legit news.

This latest backlash against STOMP has even been given a bit of celebrity push, as Lush 99.5FM DJ Rosalyn Lee has established herself as one of STOMP's fiercest critics:

She is most likely responding to an incident involving STOMP and her DJ colleague, Chris Ho, also from LUSH 99.5FM, that occurred last week:

On April 4, 2014, Ho, was accused on STOMP for making anti-Singaporean comments when he was, in fact, taking a tongue-in-cheek stance as his alter ego on his personal Facebook page.

He later had to issue a public apology.
