Gender and Production Analysis

In many ways, this site is doing for the public something that should have been done a long time ago. Reading into all the areas that are covered on this website truly astonishes me. Looking into the gender portion of the website made me smile with all the feminism topics covered throughout the page. One thing I like is that it solidifies the fact that feminism does not mean that an individual prefers a woman, per se, but it means that you will fight for a woman to be viewed equally to a man regardless of gender. When I looked into the production analysis, all I could do was agree with their findings. In the first couple of paragraphs, it was stated that because of this 'media monopoly' currently taking place, not many controversial issues are being covered in this area. How this relates to gender is that many of the feminist issues are minimized and shrunk in the media because it is such a controversial issue. Facts that would show the population how truly of a problem this gender inequality is is not produced or taken to a broad stream media. In conclusion, the severity of the situation is not aired to the population. I have heard many times that for lack of knowledge, we perish. Researching this page just solidifies this concept, so thank God for this site.
