  • A Report to the Labour Commission on Older Women
    A Report to the Labour Commission on Older Women Representing Older Women in the Media: the Key Issues Dr. Josephine Dolan Estella Tincknell, Associate Professor in Film and Culture University of the West of England, Bristol The position of older women in the media industries The position of older women in the media industries needs to be investigated in the broadest sense of representation. That is, who is represented, on what terms, and for whose benefit? Representation refers both to the public sphere of political and social activity and to the realm of media, film and television, in which powerful images of the world, and meanings about it, are circulated. In both areas women become increasingly marginalised as they age and it is only by addressing both aspects of the problem that real change can be achieved. Crucially, powerful myths, unsupported assumptions and taken for granted beliefs about who and what women can be help to institutionalise sexist ageism and to naturalise the ways in which women and men experience profound differences in their access to recognition and power. We therefore need to investigate where, when and how older women are represented across the full gamut of media from newspapers and magazines to broadcasting and cinema. We also need to make meaningful connections between representation in its democratic sense and representation in its mediatory sense in order to achieve real world change. As well as more obvious concerns with the practice of ageist/sexist discrimination against older women in the media industries exemplified by the high profile cases of television presenters Miriam O’Reilly and Arlene Phillips, account must be taken of the ways in which older women are either stereotyped by, or marginalised and made invisible within the vast majority of media output, both fictional and factual.

  • Newsreaders As Eye Candy: the Hidden Agenda of Public Service Broadcasting
    Page 92 Journalism Education Volume 1 number 1 Newsreaders as eye candy: the hidden agenda of public service broadcasting Claire Wolfe and Dr. Barbara Mitra Worcester University Abstract: Television news adds to the wider discourses that permeate society about feminine beauty. Women still face much greater pressure than men regarding their physical appearance and body image. How they look mat- ters, especially with regards to newsreaders and broad- casters. We investigated the opinions of journalists and audiences about the appearance of women newsreaders and found that physical appearance plays a significant role for female presenters. Also, our research suggests that where women are glamorised they are belittled in terms of intelligence and their abilities. The audience for television news are aware of the narrow versions of beau- ty that are being presented and note that they would like to see more diverse representations of women reading the news. Keywords: newsreaders, gender, sexualisation, age, representation, beauty, television news, discourse. Aims This study investigates the physical appearance of male and female newsreaders in Eng- land with reference to age, credibility and industry response. We argue that television news implicitly promotes stereotypical physical attractiveness, particularly for women. Recent research demonstrates that television is still the main source of news for many older people (Clausen, 2004 cited in Weibel, Wissmath and Groner, 2008, p.466) and hence forms part of the discourses that permeate society (Giles, 2009, p.318). Women looking good Much has been written about the preoccupation with image for women in the media (see Downs and Har- rison, 1985; Demarest and Allen, 2005; Wykes and Gunter, 2005) and how these reinforce dominant dis- courses of beauty as well as patriarchal norms.
