On Monday, we'll be taking a closer look at media aimed at women -- online versions of traditional women's magazines, female-focused sections of the mainstream media, and how things have or have not evolved over the years. We'll also discuss whether the #MeToo movement shaped how the media talks about -- and to -- women. With special guest lecturer Carolyn Libby, producer at WGBH-TV.
Required reading/viewing:
- Watch what you can of tonight’s Democratic debate, hosted by The Washington Post and MSNBC, paying attention to the three (female) moderators, what they ask and how they’re received. Is there a focus on “women’s issues”? Do female candidate get more questions or more time? It’ll be livestreamed at MSNBC.com and WashingtonPost.com (if you can’t watch it live, you should be able to watch snippets or recaps after the fact).
