This book brings together evidence-based, feminist manifestos for media and communication. It offers real, actionable, practical solutions to media problems and deficiencies, and shows how feminist thinking can be usefully and effectively applied to a wide range of journalism, media, and communication practices. The book offers specific, feasible blueprints for restructuring media in ways that make them more equitable and more democratic.
 
 

Junctures in Women’s Leadership: Media and Journalism analyzes what motivates and enables women to become media leaders, what obstacles they face, how they solve problems, and the intersecting impacts of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and age. In addition to looking at executive leadership, it considers moral leadership and willingness to innovate. Spanning the history of U.S. commercial, non-commercial, and alternative media, the book includes cases in print, broadcast, PR, film, and digital media.
