This content analysis analyzes approximately 40 years of national network news crisis coverage to determine the representation of female journalists in crisis reporting. Overall, this study found while female journalists were responsible for more crisis coverage with the progression of time, women were still underrepresented. Furthermore, through categorizing the crises, this study found an association between the nature of the crisis situation and the gender of the reporters covering it; overall, female journalists were most underrepresented in accident crisis coverage.
