The TOHIF Podcast

Sportswashing is one of the most talked about issues in modern football, but its relationship to online hate is often overlooked. Sportswashing is talked about in terms of the geo-political strategy of nefarious power brokers and not in terms of social media users attacking journalists that accuse 'their club' of sportswashing.

On this episode of The TOHIF Podcast, Dr Gary Sinclair outlines the roots of sportswashing and how it has been transformed in the online era. Gary is then joined by Dr Jack Black for a discussion on what makes football so susceptible to sportswashing and what can be done to resist it.
