Lisa Cornwell, ex-Golf Channel anchor, talks with SI contributor Farrell Evans about her new tell-all memoir, 'Troublemaker,' where she describes a culture of sexism and retaliation at Golf Channel. 

“I don’t mind being the target of hate because I spoke out,” Cornwell says. “The one thing that I've really learned from all of this is that there’s a real fear in women to speak out. There’s a real fear of backlash and retaliation, and that fear is justified. I understand it because retaliation and backlash are absolutely real. I’m living proof of that.”

In response to Cornwell's interview, an NBC spokesperson said: "Golf Channel is committed to providing a workplace where all employees are treated equitably and respectfully. When concerns are brought to our attention, we investigate and take appropriate action."
