Gender and Journalism introduces students to how one facet of our
humanity—gender—has a tremendous effect on the people working
in journalism; the subjects and framing of the stories they tell;
and ultimately the people who consume those stories. This engaging
textbook provides a history of gender equality struggles alongside
the development of news media in the United States. It provides
foundational concepts, theories, and methods through which students
can explore the role gender has played in news media. Promoting
media literacy, the book empowers students to look at the many
factors that influence stories and to become more critical media
consumers and creators themselves. While the book centers on
women’s experiences in the United States, it also considers the
political, economic, and cultural aspects of gender and journalism
globally. It addresses experiences of LGBTQ and non-white
individuals to give an intersectional context to the ramifications
of gender. Students learn important concepts such as hegemonic
masculinity, colorblind racism, infantilization, and the double
binds and explore issues related to gender in photojournalism,
sports journalism, and broadcasting. Designed to humanize media
institutions, the book highlights the lives of influential writers,
journalists, activists, and media producers. Every chapter includes
profiles of key journalists and activists and primary source
excerpts, as well as reflection and media critique chapter-ending
questions. Highlighted keywords in each chapter culminate in a
comprehensive glossary. Instructor materials include suggested
activities and sample quizzes. Content Features: Discussion of
communication and media studies terms and theory Introduction to

Embodied Activisms explores how activists use their bodies to
resist social norms, engage with institutions, and promote change.
This book spans historical perspectives, current contexts, and the
most current scholarly literature to interrogate how embodied
activisms are read, performed, understood, and actualized. The
studies in this volume address current, critical issues such as
police accountability activism, the climate crisis, environmental
concerns, and protests of Supreme Court confirmation hearings.
Chapters analyze a wide range of nonviolent mobilization tactics,
including silent protests, embodied witnessing, leisure spectacle
demonstrations, performance art and other forms of creative
practice, and rallies. Analyses engage with aspects of
intersectionality in activism and critique diverse modes of
embodied resistance in locations including East Central Europe, the
Americas, and the Mediterranean region.
Video journalism, the process by which one person shoots, writes,
and edits video for broadcast or the web, is a form of
newsgathering taking hold in newsrooms of all kinds, by
professionals and would-be citizen journalists around the world.
Some proponents have celebrated it as an improved narrative form,
one that uses more intimate, emotional documentary filmmaking
techniques than conventional television. Its detractors consider it
simply a cheaper way to make news. Video Journalism: Beyond the
One-Man Band weighs in on the controversy while addressing two
overall concerns: What is video journalism, exactly? And how do the
stories created by video journalists compare with other forms of
news? This book presents more than two years of ethnographic
research in a wide variety of contexts in the United States and the
United Kingdom, including local newspapers, The New York Times,
local television stations, the BBC, the Voice of America radio
network, and several professional photographic workshops. In a
departure from other news ethnographies, this book takes a somewhat
unusual approach in that the author observes video journalists at
work in the field, not just in newsrooms, on stories ranging from
an urban shooting to a presidential campaign visit. This approach
offers a fascinating insider perspective for those in the field as
well as those who aspire to it.

A behind-the-scenes look at the struggles between visual
journalists and officials over what the public sees-and therefore
much of what the public knows-of the criminal justice system. In
the contexts of crime, social justice, and the law, nothing in
visual media is as it seems. In today's mediated social world,
visual communication has shifted to a democratic sphere that has
significantly changed the way we understand and use images as
evidence. In Seeing Justice, Mary Angela Bock examines the way
criminal justice in the US is presented in visual media by focusing
on the grounded practices of visual journalists in relationship
with law enforcement. Drawing upon extended interviews, participant
observation, contemporary court cases, and critical discourse
analysis, Bock provides a detailed examination of the way
digitization is altering the relationships between media,
consumers, and the criminal justice system. From tabloid coverage
of the last public hanging in the US to Karen-shaming videos, from
mug shots to perp walks, she focuses on the practical struggles
between journalists, police, and court officials to control the way
images influence their resulting narratives. Revealing the way
powerful interests shape what the public sees, Seeing Justice
offers a model for understanding how images are used in news
narrative.
