  • Presentation of Muslim Women in Western Print Media: a Content Analysis of ‘Time’ and ‘Newsweek’
    Presentation of Muslim Women in Western Print Media: A Content Analysis of ‘Time’ and ‘Newsweek’ Prof. Dr. Muhammad Ashraf Khan and Sadaf Zahra Abstract Media usage as most influential and malleable tool to affect the society as a whole and particularly different segments within the social boundaries regarding their means of thinking and belief system, is commonly known now. Western media have consistently presented distorted images of Muslim women and as a result they are simply perceived as lustful and object of desire besides illiterate, enslaved and oppressed images. The study was intended to explore the overall treatment of the Muslim women by newsmagazines ‘Time’ and ‘Newsweek’. Content analysis of all the data published in the newsmagazines concerning Muslim women was analyzed within the dimensions of categories, frames, tone and themes. Results of the study instigated that progressive Muslim women were positively while oppressed Muslim women were negatively discussed. Furthermore, their Education, Social Status and Achievements etc. were mainly highlighted. Key Words: Veil, Rights, Muslims, Islam, Social Status, Education, Stereotypes, Oppressed Women. Introduction It is above any doubt that all forms of media have great influences over the audience; however, print media steps forward more passionately in order to leave its long-lasting impacts on different segments of the society (Jamieson & Campbell, 2000). Sometimes, it becomes a significant contributor also by disseminating type of false information or data to the readers.
