How Hollywood views Washington Women

This video from Washington Post illustrates how trough the media the role of the women has been stereotyped in different ways. In this case the reflexion is how although some productions of Hollywood or tv series recognize that women can get positions of power in politics, their characters have to face challenges that men don’t, which is the result of the fact that most of these productions are written by men.

As we discussed in class, I think that the media exert a powerful influence on society especially in relation to the perpetuation of gender stereotypes and that is why I believe that even more laws are being created to advocate for women’s rights, while cultural changes do not occur and these are reflected in the media, it is very difficult to eradicate gender inequality.
