Abstract

Sports journalists are penalized by laws and regulations when they express opinions in an unacceptable manner, but there is no protection when they share logical opinions and face bullying on social media platforms. With this context in mind, we aim to examine the effects of cyberbullying on professionals in the field of sports media. The study is organized into three key sections: the first introduces a framework for understanding cyberbullying, the second provides a comprehensive explanation of sports media along with a theoretical framework for the issues raised, and the third focuses on the bullying of sports media professionals and suggests proposed solutions to overcome this challenge.
