[Air-L] additional pieces of bias against women in journalism

[Gabriella "Biella" Coleman]

Hi all,

I have heard back from some folks claiming that the case Meryl
highlighted was not indicative of larger trends. I thought I would pass
on a few pieces that do deal with the fact that the omission and
invisibility of female voices in journalism and journalistic writing is
not a sporadic occurrence but a systematic one. If others have good
pieces on the topic, I would love to see them.
