Women Leaders and Gender Stereotyping in the UK Press: A Poststructuralist Approach By Judith BaxterEnglish | PDF | 2017 (2018 Edition) | 169 Pages | ISBN : 3319643274 | 2.06 MB
This book explores how the UK press constructs and represents women leaders drawn from three professional spheres: politics, business, and the mass media. Despite significant career progress made by women leaders in these professions, many British newspapers continue to portray these women in stereotyped and essentialist ways: the extent to which this occurs tending to correspond with the political affiliation and target readership of the newspaper.
