This fourth edition of Women in Mass Communication addresses the myriad changes in media and mass communication disciplines in relation to women over the last five decades.

This volume traces the history of diversity, equity, and inclusion for women in media, enabling greater understanding of global discourses and inequities, exploring transnational feminism, offering criticism of underlying structures, and calling for meaningful changes to media systems. With particular emphasis on educational and professional approaches to media communication, the book brings together a wide variety of specific topics and connects them through an intersectional feminist lens that values diversity, equity, and inclusion while exposing global systemic misogyny. The volume features 23 authors with a variety of backgrounds and perspectives from Australia, Germany, Ghana, Kenya, Korea, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and the United States. This fourth edition focuses on marginalization practices—race, ethnicity, LGBTQ+, social class, and in multiple societies—providing insight into identity and difference in a global context.

An important text for students and scholars examining gender in relation to mass communication, media studies, and journalism, as well as those exploring wider issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion within these disciplines.

This edited collection provides a singular look at contemporary mediated coverage of women athletes and sports from Title IX to the present day.

Through personal perspectives, contributors provide a valuable overview of common patterns in women’s sports media coverage, exploring issues of diversity, ethnicity, and inclusion. Chapters examine Title IX discourse, NIL brand creation, and marketing among female college athletes through platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter (X), the recent surge in what appears to be empowering gender discourse and contemporary public debates, legislative attacks on the participation of trans and nonbinary athletes, differential treatment of women’s athletic injuries as compared to men’s injuries, and the role of women working in sports media both on the field and on the sidelines. The book includes a review of changes in the media coverage of women in sport, offering an overall assessment of the status of women athletes in the half-century after Title IX. It concludes with an examination of the power of coaching and the imperative to protect athletes from abuses of that power.

This book will be of interest to students and scholars of media, communication, journalism, and beyond that are examining the topic of women, media, and sport.
