"Sexism refers to discrimination based on gender, just as racism refers to discrimination based on race.
The media are particularly effective and insidious vehicles for sexism. They are also, potentially,
influential instruments of change. People working in all areas of the media have a responsibility to act
against oppressive stereotyping of men and women" (p. 1).
