Discussion Points: Media Images, Feminist Issues

Bottom Line:

            Throughout the 20^th Century, women found it difficult to voice their opinions in many media outlets such as political campaigns, television, and feminist movements. Although media coverage has been shaped in a way that portrays the male perception of women issues, feminist views are oppressed by gender bias, which make it harder for women to fully voice their opinions. 

Question:

Do shows such as Oprah and The View have certain restrictions as to what issues on women they can address on television being that their main target audience is women?
