演講介紹:
Women receive substantially less media coverage than men. However, the reasons for these disparities are not always clear. While some theories point to societal-level structural and occupational gender inequalities, others suggest explanations that focus on the role of news reporters or editors and on news sources catering to public demand. In this talk I discuss more than a decade of research, utilizing computational analyses of millions of male and female names in more than 2,000 news sources. My analyses provide insights on the relative strength of these different explanations in accounting for persistent gender inequalities in the media.
