The world seen in the news media remains largely a male one. The report <a href="http://www.whomakesthenews.org/images/stories/website/gmmp_reports/2010/global/gmmp_global_report_en.pdf"><i>Who Makes the News? The Global Media Monitoring Project 2010</i></a> was released on 29 September 2010 in Arabic , English, French and Spanish, along with numerous regional and national reports. The report presents findings from 1,365 newspapers, television and radio stations and Internet news sites, 17,795 news stories and 38,253 persons in the news monitored in 108 countries last November. The research has found that female reporters are responsible for 37% of stories now, compared to 28% fifteen years ago, and their stories challenge gender stereotypes twice as often as stories by male reporters. Gender bias in Internet news is similar and in some respects even more intense than that found in the traditional news media. The global, regional and country reports are now available at <a href="http://www.whomakesthenews.org">www.whomakesthenews.org</a>. <b>Title</b>: <i>‘Berlin evokes the triumph of liberty: World leaders past and present meet in the German capital to celebrate the ‘peaceful revolution that changed the world</i>’ ‘ |
