Haters: Stories about internet trolls

from The Story Collider

In this week’s episode, both of our storytellers share their experiences with online hate and the surprising lessons they learnt along the way. Part 1: After debunking Bella Hadid’s treatment for chronic lyme disease, Fola Olusanya finds herself in a heated debate with another TikToker. Part 2: During the pandemic, infectious disease researcher and science communicator Laurel Bristow receives a flood of hate mail. Fola Olusanya is a PhD student at NYU studying computational biomedicine, and has been a producer with Story Collider since 2022. She is also a writer and content creator. Laurel Bristow is an infectious disease researcher, science communicator, reluctant instagram baddie, and all around fan of tomfoolery. By day she creates public health education for general audiences and occasionally uses her free time and instagram to educate about infectious disease, and advance her personal vendetta against the cruise industry.
