Hate speech and incitement to hatred against minorities in the media 2015, para. 103 | Aug 19, 2019 | Paragraph | Traditional and contemporary media have enormous potential to foster knowledge, understanding and acceptance of diversity. Media can also be misused as a forum for stigmatization, discrimination, exclusion and, in the worst cases, incitement of violence. Contemporary media, particularly new digital media, due to its immediacy, universal scope, accessibility, interactive nature and the difficulty of regulating it, have become accessible platforms for spreading hate speech. | Special Rapporteur on minority issues | Special Procedures' report |

Hate speech and incitement to hatred against minorities in the media 2015, para. 101 | Aug 19, 2019 | Paragraph | Hatred is often constructed, fuelled, maintained and directed by certain individuals or groups against other individuals and communities who are different in ethnicity, language or religion from the dominant majority, often for political reasons or owing to long-standing and entrenched discrimination. Hateful messages may fall on particularly fertile ground where there are wider social, economic or political problems or divisions in society. The root causes of hatred often lie beyond purely ethnic or religious difference and must be better understood. | Special Rapporteur on minority issues | Special Procedures' report |
