Straits Times Online Mobile Print (also abbreviated as STOMP or S.T.O.M.P) is a Singapore-based web aggregator and online journalism web portal managed by the Singapore Press Holdings. It describes itself as "Asia's leading citizen-journalism website". == Controversy == STOMP contributors, otherwise known as STOMPers, have been widely criticised for submitting xenophobic, racist and sexist content onto the portal. There are also instances of fabricated submissions targeting National Servicemen and commuters on public transport.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Why does Stomp even exist? )〕 In 2012, STOMP staff, 23-year-old Samantha Francis, was sacked after submitting a photo of an MRT train moving with the train doors wide open. It was later revealed that she had taken the photo off Twitter. The editor-in-chief, Mr Patrick Daniel, issued an apology to SMRT.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= AsiaOne: Stomp Staff sacked over false MRT open door photo )〕 On 24 March 2014, a STOMPer submitted a photograph of an NS man not giving up his seat to an elderly woman on the train. This photo was later found to be doctored – in reality, there was an empty seat next to the man which was cropped out of the photo.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Straits Times portal’s inaccurate report about NSman on train )〕 In April 2014, an online petition to close down the portal went viral. The petition garnered close to 23,000 signatures as of 15 April 2014. Robin Li, owner of the petition, stated: "STOMP has failed to rectify and set simple sensible guidelines before any irresponsible netizen contributes a fabricated story without getting the right facts." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Straits Times Online Mobile Print」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
