Hate speech is a challenging problem, and its dissemination can cause potential harm to individuals and society by creating a sense of general unwelcoming to the marginalized groups, which usually are targeted. Therefore, it is essential to understand this issue and which techniques are useful for automatic detection. This paper presents a survey on automatic hate speech detection on social media, providing a structured overview of theoretical aspects and practical resources. Thus, we review different definitions of the term “hate speech” from social network platforms and the scientific community. We also present an overview of the methodologies used for hate speech detection, and we describe the main approaches currently explored in this context, including popular features, datasets, and algorithms. Furthermore, we discuss some challenges and opportunities for better solving this issue.

Celebs-gram or celebrities on Instagram try to show a new identity by showing their daily life through their social media. Unfortunately, many female celebrities receive insinuation and hate speech from netizens in their posts. This cannot be separated from the women stigma regarding to their assessment to them through religion, social, and the value of politeness in society. One of them is the @rachelven account. Her decision to open the veil has made this celeb-gram close the comment column to be limited to his followers. This research is a descriptive textual study using a narrative approach. Narrative in this context refers to updated status on Instagram. Narratives are understood as "small stories" that capture the whole variety of narrative activities that are not represented in the big or canonical narratives. The results of this study indicate that hate speech against female celebrities means that those celebs-gram receive negative judgments and comments from netizens by using religious statements and social norms. The netizens provide comments by quoting verses from the scriptures, giving bad labels, and giving judgments for the celeb-gram's attitudes.

“…Some journalists have recently reconsidered their practice of objectivity when faced with such hate speech as Holocaust denial (Whine 2020). Researchers have often cast the media portrayal of Holocaust denial as a battle between authoritative sources over the truth (Cohen-Almagor 2013;Lipstadt 2012;Moldavan 2005;Zandberg 2010). Lipstadt has noted (2012) that the rise of online Holocaust denial was especially worrisome because some commentators tended to present this as a balanced view and it was attracting younger audiences.…”

This study applies the concepts of interpretive communities and conversational interactions to show how investigative journalists initiated a relatively new method of reporting and generated support among their colleagues for becoming anti-Nazi activists and troll hunters. It draws on a sample of journalistic reporting and related media items to examine investigative reporters’ self-reflexive acts and the responses of journalism communities in Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States from 2015 to 2020. Investigative journalists initiated open conversations to show that they were enthusiastic activists in retweeting, confronting and quoting neo-Nazi trolling by interviewing the perpetrators. Other journalism communities signified they were pursuing activist-like agendas as they magnified this work through informal networks, social media and news commentaries. Journalists reconsidered their professional boundaries to allow for cooperative conversations about their experiences in a fresh effort to denounce hate speech and begin collective initiatives to enhance social cohesion in civil society.
