Death threats and online rage spreading into the real world

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

A man charged with threatening to kill Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern appeared in court this week. It’s the latest example of online threats stepping dangerously close to crossing over into real-world violence. So how seriously should we take these online threats? And what can we do to help those being drawn in by dangerous ideology? Today, NZ Herald senior writer David Fisher joins Damien to discuss the challenges facing authorities in tackling this problem.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
