Jody Vance has dealt with harassment for most of her career as a broadcast journalist, but starting in 2015 one of her harassers was different, constantly sending hateful, vile emails. When COVID hit, the problem only got worse as the harasser started targeting more of her guests and B.C.’s Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry. Who was this person and how do you bring an anonymous online tormentor to justice?  On March 10, 2023, after seven years of vitriolic emails, Jody finally had her day in court and faced her harasser.  Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Reporter, Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Jonathan Goldsbie (News Editor), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor) Featured guests: Jody Vance, Jesse Miller, Erica Ifill Special thanks to Sandy Garossino, columnist at the National Observer Further reading:  Steele & Vance — Chek TVThe three words a court wouldn’t allow Jody Vance to say to her online abuser — The Globe & MailWomen and Racialized Journalists In Canada Facing New Wave Of Harassment And Threats — AntiHate.caRachel Gilmore’s tweets sharing her phone call with the policeSaba Eitizaz’s tweets sharing her experience with the police  Additional music by Audio Network Sponsors: Douglas, Squarespace, Athletic Greens   If you value this podcast, support us!
