George Cooper

George is a journalist with the Daily Telegraph. In this interview he not only tells how his coming out story is an example of how not to come out to your parents. He also talks about what its like to be a member of the LGBT community working in the heterosexual dominated world of sport’s journalism and the steps that employers can take to promote diversity. He talks about how he fell into the media’s familiar trap of trying to find and speak to professional gay football players when writing an article about homophobia and how he now regrets taking the approach he did. He also speaks very candidly about becoming addicted to online gambling, how telling his family about it was worse than his original coming out as gay and how he now campaigns to raise awareness about the problems of online gambling.
