When we talk about men being allies for women working in sports, and specifically in sports media, here's what we mean: 1) Amplify and share the work of your female colleagues 2) Listen when we say harassment happens 3) When you see it/hear it, speak up, don't laugh along.
4) There are entire sports media companies built on the platform of misogyny; palling around with them makes you complicit and makes many of your female coworkers uncomfortable. 5) Be especially aware of the challenges women face at events like the combine + senior bowl.
I am so fortunate to work with (now and in the past) so many incredible men, who have been supportive mentors and allies. We all can do better, and I appreciate all of you who are working with us to do so.
