INTERNATIONAL RECORDING ARTIST: FIGHTING BACK AGAINST CYBERBULLYING!
This week on TALK! with AUDREY: International recording artist, DELON, has stepped down as the opening act for America’s Got Talent artist Lindsey Stirling’s first-ever U.S. Tour. The rapper, best known to fans worldwide for his music and two chart topping U.S. Billboard hit singles “Calor De La Salsa” and “Nasty Girl”, elected to leave the tour to address an internet attack campaign aimed at destroying his reputation with fabrications of serious criminal charges. DELON’s story is one example of how a reputation can be ruined by cyberbullying and cause harm to one’s livelihood.
This week on TALK! with AUDREY: MARIE NEWMAN, Anti-bullying Family Advocate is my guest. We talk about the challenges that some children face at school . . . bullying. Did you know that every seven minutes a child is bullied; 85 percent of the time, there is no intervention of any kind. In fact, bullying is a leading cause of suicide among children between the ages of 11 and 16. It’s no surprise that 86 percent of children bullied say it interferes with their school studies. Marie has tips for parents and educators about how to support the fight against bullying.
