But what was particularly alarming was the targeted nature of this campaign." The pattern of harassment of journalists is incredibly alarming and completely unacceptable. Also, we were told we were put on a list of journalists to be silenced," Erica Ifill, a columnist for The Hill Times and a podcast host, told Legislation governing how social media platforms grapple with harmful content is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to online harassment, said Emily Laidlaw, Canada research chair in cybersecurity law at the University of Calgary. One of the most extreme examples of online harassment played out in London, Ont. Since we've gone public, I think that process has improved somewhat," said Patel. "It's more than just an e-mail. Former Liberal cabinet minister Catherine McKenna called it "beyond the pale." No journalist should ever be threatened for doing their job.— But screaming threatening language & physical intimidation cross the line.— For weeks, a group of journalists, particularly journalists of colour, have publicly shared a series of private, anonymous emails they've received. One unpleasant incident yesterday doesn't change that."
