PFWA statement on July 16, 2020 story in The Washington Post

The Pro Football Writers of America stands in support of Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic and Nora Princiotti of The Ringer, who bravely shared their experiences of sexual harassment while covering the Washington football team.

All reporters covering the NFL, regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation, deserve safe workplaces free of harassment.

The PFWA asks that the Washington football club, the NFL and its other 31 teams take these allegations seriously, as well as the misconduct described by former team employees to The Washington Post; examine the culture that allowed this sort of behavior to persist; and work with us to ensure a professional working environment for all.
