Women journalists in Mexico: forms of resistance to guarantee the right of information to the audiences
Abstract
Given the increasing violence that journalist women suffer from due to the nature of their work and their gender, they have produced forms of resistance that contribute to the configuration of journalistic work. Ten feminist journalists from Mexican radio, television, magazines and the press, in general, were interviewed to find out what kinds of resistance they practice against the violence they perceive. The hypothesis proposed is that these types of violence violate audiences' right to information. Key factors as patriarchy and capitalism aggravate this problem.
