The Nationalist MEP and European Parliament vice-president Roberta Metsola has raised the online harassment of MaltaToday journalist Nicole Meilak in a debate on women’s lives under the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a live debate on the European Parliament in Malta Facebook page, Metsola commented on the treatment of women in journalism as a window on the way women in politics are also treated.
“We can see what was said about Daphne Caruana Galizia before she was murdered, or when a young woman journalist is savaged for asking a question,” Metsola said in a reference to Meilak’s question to Superintendent for Public Health Charmaine Gauci, asking her whether she should resign in the wake of rising COVID cases and political pressure on scientific advice.
