Dear John,
Every day, journalists around the world encounter online harassment and abuse, often intended to suppress critical voices by attacking their credibility. However, while all journalists are at risk of such attacks, it is women journalists who have found themselves on the front line of the battle against online harassment and intimidation.
Governments, social media platforms, and news organizations must all develop more effective tools, techniques, and policies to ensure that media workers are not targeted, and to implement meaningful consequences for their abusers if they are.
