We request that Channel 9 continue to keep Sam Newman off the Footy Show as he continually expresses misogynistic views and publicly harasses and humiliates women in gender-based attacks. Newman\'s antics are not \"entertainment\" but abuse, and Channel 9 must act responsibly in removing such a public disgrace from television.
We intend to send the completed petition to Channel 9.
The stories shared in the comments keep reminding me exactly why this fight is necessary. I am currently organizing our next outreach efforts to ensure the leadership at Channel 9 cannot bury this issue any longer.

Seeing this level of support confirms that so many of you have grown just as tired of these attacks as I have. This momentum proves that we are no longer willing to accept abuse disguised as humor on our screens.

He's a racist, mysoginistic idiot. His opinions are backwards and disgusting. He has no place on television of any sort

Eddie McGuire and Sam Newman and their like minded colleagues should be replaced on Australian Television and radio. They are not the role models we need for our young men and women. They should not be allowed to continue to express their misogynistic views. Men of this calibre have been given a say for far too long on Australian Television and radio.

Sick of turning on the tv and seeing him act like a total pig. Get him off the air already its 2018 not 1950.
