How forty-one women-including Dorothy Parker, Gypsy Rose Lee, and Lena Horne- were forced out of American television and radio in the 1950s Red Scare.
Carol A. Stabile approfondisce questioni profonde all'incrocio tra femminismo e tecnologia. Il suo lavoro esamina come genere, razza e media si intrecciano nelle narrazioni sociali, scoprendo pregiudizi nascosti che plasmano le nostre percezioni. Stabile incoraggia il pensiero critico su come la tecnologia e le costruzioni culturali influenzino le disuguaglianze.


How forty-one women-including Dorothy Parker, Gypsy Rose Lee, and Lena Horne- were forced out of American television and radio in the 1950s Red Scare.
Exploring cultural anxieties surrounding race and gender, this book examines their impact on societal beliefs about crime and its portrayal in media. Through a series of case studies spanning from the early nineteenth century to the present, it reveals how these anxieties shape public perception and reporting of criminal events, offering a critical analysis of the interplay between social constructs and crime narratives.
