Women and Media

Description

Dr. Cindy Lont from George Mason University hosts this fast-moving program that features visuals of past and present media as well as interviews with Dr. Maurine Beasley, Sheila Gibbons, and Junior Bridge - all foundational scholars in the field of women and media. The program focuses on four areas: the reclaimed history of women who created media; the media portrayal of women; women's inclusion in the media workforce; and how men perceive media differently than women, which affects what we read, see, and hear from the media.
