  • The Media's Role in Undermining Female Political Candidates
    International Journal of Politics and Good Governance Volume 2, No. 2.4 Quarter IV 2011 ISSN: 0976 – 1195 The Naked Truth: The Media’s Role in Undermining Female Political Candidates Kimberly S. Adams Associate Professor of Political Science and owner of Adams Political Research & Consulting Abstract Using academic journal articles, newspapers, debate footage, blogs, and nightly new excerpts, this study examines the inherent media bias in the political campaigns of contemporary female political figures in the United States. Secondly, the paper explores how the process of framing is used in the media to inhibit women’s progress when they decided to run for public office. Finally, this research offers possible ways to overcome biased media coverage of female political figures and therefore, suggest ways to develop a more leveled and equitable political field for female candidates and politicians.

In the United States, no woman has occupied the White House in the capacity of President, to date. Moreover, the U.S. House of 1 International Journal of Politics and Good Governance Volume 2, No.
