Women’s Positioning as Announcers on Radio Broadcasts Programs in Santiago de Chile
Abstract
This paper aims to describe the role of women in FM radios broadcasting in Santiago de Chile. A database was created in order to identify the number of women participating as announcers and to observe, through the categorization of different programs, which is the role they have been given. This is a descriptive analysis that follows the notions of communicational framing of gender,agenda setting and critical feminist analysis. It also relates the underrepresentation of women in radio broadcasting with the masculinization of public spaces and power.
