A Channel Seven News journalist responded after being insulted with a shocking insult on social media.
Adelaide-based presenter Mitchell Sariovski, 27, was targeted by homophobic trolls after posting on the Australian Radio School’s Facebook page.
In one post, a troll labelled the Sunrise presenter a “huge homosexual” and in another asked him “why do you kiss boys?”
The troll also sent Mitchell a direct message that read: “Lose some weight you fat shit sucker.”
Sariovski, who lives with his fiancée Lauren and their two children, took to Instagram to share the comments and respond to the user.
Along with screenshots of the offensive comments, the TV host wrote a caption criticizing them.
“It makes me sick to think how ignorant this man is,” Mitchell began.
“I’ve never met this guy, but he keeps sending me homophobic slurs. You shouldn’t care what people are like.”
