SUMMARY:The Chilling Tide of Abuse Faced by Women Journalists
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Online harm and harassment is one of the most significant safety issues facing women journalists today\, and is on the rise globally\, according to a 2021 report by the International Center for Journalists. Digital attacks aimed predominantly at women and racialized journalists are intended to belittle\, discredit\, humiliate and\, ultimately\, undermine trust in facts and jeopardize press freedom.  \nIn Canada\, several journalists – nearly all racialized women – were recently targeted by an escalating hate campaign through encrypted email services\, threatening ‘real-world’ sexual violence and harm.  \nAs part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence\, the Canadian Journalism Foundation\, in collaboration with the #NotOk campaign and the Canadian Women’s Foundation\, welcomed three journalists to share their insights on online violence against women journalists in Canada\, the challenges they face and perspectives on solutions and supporting others in the industry.  \nThe virtual discussion took place on November 30 and featured journalist\, broadcaster and co-founder of Media Girlfriends\, Garvia Bailey; freelance journalist Christina Frangou; and Toronto Star producer and co-host of This Matters podcast\, Saba Eitizaz. CBC News correspondent Salimah Shivji moderated this discussion.

SUMMARY:An Inside Look at Investigations into Sexual Abuse Allegations in Organized Hockey
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Investigative reporting on organized hockey in Canada has revealed a toxic culture of sexual\, possibly illegal\, misconduct. As a result\, Canada’s governing body for its national sport – Hockey Canada – is facing an ongoing crisis and official scrutiny regarding its response to allegations going back to 1989\, largely exposed by rigorous investigative journalism. \nThe Canadian Journalism Foundation’s (CJF) J-Talk series on October 4 explored the media’s role in bringing these scandals to light. The event took place in person at the Toronto Reference Library’s Bram & Bluma Appel Salon at 789 Yonge Street. \nOver the past two years\, CTV News and TSN’s award-winning journalist Rick Westhead broke several stories that undermined Canadians’ trust in hockey leaders and national organizations. In May\, Westhead revealed that Hockey Canada settled a multi-million dollar sexual assault suit by a woman against eight organized Canadian Hockey League players\, including members of Canada’s gold medal-winning 2017-18 World Junior team. Since then\, he uncovered more gang sexual assault allegations\, this time against the 2002-03 World Junior team\, which are now being investigated by the Halifax police. \nThese investigations came nearly one year after Westhead first introduced Kyle Beach as the John Doe former Chicago Blackhawks minor league player who accused the NHL team’s video coach of sexual assault during the team’s 2010 championship run. \nOur CJF J-Talk featured Westhead\, TSN Vice-President and Executive Producer Ken Volden and The Athletic’s Katie Strang\, who led her website’s reporting on these issues. They discussed their investigations in conversation with CTV National News journalist Judy Trinh. \n  \nWATCH THE SHOW\nLISTEN TO THE SHOW\nVIEW EVENT PHOTOS\nOctober 4 | Doors open at 6 p.m. | Discussion 6:30 p.m.\nThe Bram & Bluma Appel Salon\, Toronto Reference Library\n789 Yonge Street\, Toronto\n \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1664816055566{border-radius: 1px !important;}”] \nEVENT PROGRAM\nDOWNLOAD PDF \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1492008828909{margin-top: 40px !important;}”][vc_column] ABOUT THE SPEAKERS [vc_column_text]Katie Strang is a senior investigative and enterprise writer for The Athletic where she specializes in covering the intersection of sports and social issues\, with a particular focus on sexual abuse and gendered violence.
