The current study looks at the hostility and abuse that professionals in the broadcasting and sports industries have experienced online. Ofcom worked with Kick It Out, the anti-discrimination organization in sports, to speak with individuals who have experienced online hatred and abuse firsthand, to hear and learn from their stories, and to assist us in creating policies pertaining to online safety. Through Kick It Out’s network, Ofcom recruited athletes, on-screen commentators, and broadcasting and sports professionals for nine group conversations and seven individual interviews in the summer and fall of 2024.https://www.ofcom.org.uk/online-safety/online-abuse/online-hate-and-abuse-in-sport-a-report-by-ofcom-in-partnership-with-kick-it-outShare this: Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Click to share on X (Opens in new window) X Like this:Like Loading...
