Feminist perspectives of mass media? in which direction should i look?

Question

thankyou, yes it was too broad! I have a 500 word overview to write as a sub section for a report on mass media, (roles and ownership) this one has me a little foxed so i was just wondering what everyone else thought should go into it!

Answer 1

that is really broad ...are you speaking of women in mass media or are you talking about women viewing mass media

Answer 2

One perspective is media sexual objectification of women, especially of young girls, and the subsequent harm that does.

Also, social sciences including the U.S. Department of Justice are concerned about misogynistic messages in media, such as advertising that glorifies rape to promote a product and the cost to society that incurs.
