A Channel Seven News reporter has hit back after being called a shocking slur on social media.
Adelaide-based presenter Mitchell Sariovski, 27, was attacked by homophobic trolls after he posted on the Australian Radio School’s Facebook page.
One troll labelled the Sunrise presenter a ‘chunky homo’ in one post and asked ‘why do you kiss boys?’ in another.
The troll also sent Mitchell a direct message which read, ‘lose some weight you fat c***sucker.’
Sariovski, who lives with his fiancée Lauren and their two sons, took to Instagram to reshare the comments and clap back at the user.
Alongside screenshots of the offensive comments, the TV presenter wrote a caption putting them on blast.
‘It sickens me to think how uneducated this man is,’ Mitchell began.
‘I’ve never met the guy, yet he continues to send me homophobic slurs. You shouldn’t care what people are.’

Some of Mitchell’s followers sounded off in the comments to the post.
‘What the actual f&$? What an absolute scumbag…’ wrote one commenter.

‘Trolls. Report the comments to Facebook?’
