Lawyer Amelia Cline: “In law and in medicine we have registries for lawyers and doctors who are sanctioned… But in sports, where we are talking about protecting vulnerable children, organizations cite privacy concerns of coaches. The secrecy is disgusting.”

The deification of an exclusive minority of athletes is part of what's wrong with the culture of sport.

Unless you're an Olympian or a highly-decorated national team athlete -- and sometimes, not even then -- you essentially don't matter.

At 39:49: “Right after [the Athlete A doc] aired, I got a call from my great friends at Gymnastics Canada and they were devastated because it painted gymnastics in such a bad light.”

A basic truth: you can’t work for NSOs *and* support survivors.

It’s a fundamental conflict.

Increasing uptake of long acting reversible contraceptives like IUDs is in the govt's women's health strategy, but they wouldn't tell us any concrete plans they have to tackle these barriers to access or issues around pain.

For the last few months Ellie Grounds and I have been investigating why many people getting insertions are having terrible experiences for Background Briefing and triplejHack. 300 people responded to our callout and we've uncovered some major problems.

what kind of message does it send that a First Nations woman is punished for expressing her views on colonisation while a male player filmed ASSAULTING SOMEONE can still play finals footy? the way the NRL normalises some types of violence over others is truly staggering.
