In both professional sports and sports media, worlds have long been dominated by men. Due to that, women are still left with having to navigate a world and industry, built by, and built for, men today. To talk about the ways that the sports world upholds practices that threaten the safety and wellbeing of women in the field, The 21st was joined by a sports journalist.

Guest:

Julie DiCaro, sports journalist and editor at Deadspin, author of Sidelined: Sports, Culture, and Being A Woman in America
