15 – y online bullying has gone too far tho
Tuesday Mar 03, 2020
Tuesday Mar 03, 2020
This week we sit down to discuss the dark world of cyber bullying and trolling. After the tragic death of Caroline Flack, we unfortunately discovered what the nasty side of the internet can do. We ask why people "troll", where it originally came from, and question our involvement in the harassment of celebrities in gossip columns and glossy mags. Do we all have a part to play? Did millennials create this trolling culture? Can we change it with "Caroline's Law"?
We take a closer look at our experiences of online bullying, discuss the results of the polls we guys took part in and had the privilege of sharing one listeners very personal story with cyber bullying. If you are affected by the issues discussed in this weeks episode, please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need someone to talk to. We chose to listen to Caroline and say - in a world where you can be anything, be kind.
