@DailyMonitor when will you learn how harmful language like this is when reporting on cases on sexual violence? You know the power that you have to influence public opinion and yet you continually dismiss and underplay the gravity of sexual violence. #MediaAndMeToo
Whoever the editor/ social media managers at this publication are, a few weeks back under the #MediaAndMeToo tag, we discussed ways media can improve on their reporting of sexual abuse stories.
Take a scroll through and do better. This is disgusting to say the least.

This is what we were talking about today on #MediaAndMeToo . Victimโs stories are not entertainment news.
You quoting โvictimโ is a clear indication that youโre already biased and making a joke of her story. Do better please.

I enjoyed this conversation very much. I hope we continue to have it often until we see the changes we need.
Thank you @amwaafrika for organising this :) #MediaAndMeToo
You just have to love conversations with women.
Start on time and end in time. I love it! The efficiency!

Q&A: How can we handle misogynistic women in places of influence?
@McCoolingtons: Engage them in these topics and they will find that we actually have these things in common.
#MediaAndMeToo
Having women led media houses is important but it's more important that these women have feminist values #MediaAndMeToo
How do we deal with misogynistic women in media? Women who feed into trivialising and sesantionalising abuse stories? #MediaAndMeToo
Q&A: How do we handle misogynistic women in the work place?
#MediaAndMeToo
Most of these media houses are under the thumb of the governments so reporting in most cases is done in their favor.

The media is a reflection of society
#MediaAndMeToo
A participant from Zambia noted that the stereotypes in society compel media to report on sexual harassment the way they do e.g the myths that a woman's dress code can cause sexual harassment.
#MediaAndMeToo
Even in the covid response, gender was ignored even as gbv cases went up #MediaAndMeToo
"We need to find a way to sustain these conversations"
When issues like #MeToo come up it's always taken up by women not by the stations. It's seen as an issue just for women. [paraphrased] #MediaAndMeToo
