gênero, jornal, Boko Haram, militar, NigériaResumo
Este estudo pesquisou sobre 0 papel das mulheres nas reportagens sobre as operações militares contra os insurgentes de Boko Haram e a representação delas nas notícias. A Teoria do Feminismo Radical e a Teoria do Grupo Silenciado Feminista foram utilizadas para elucidar a pesquisa. Usando a análise de conteúdo, edições online de quatro jornais nigerianos; Daily Trust, Premium Times, The Nation e Vanguard, de janeiro de 2014 a dezembro de 2016, foram investigados para revelar como as mulheres eram apresentadas nas reportagens. As descobertas produziram 185 notícias e as mulheres foram incluídas em 10% do total de fotos utilizadas. Elas representaram 8% das assinaturas e 4% das fontes, e 59% das mulheres mencionadas nas notícias foram apresentadas como vítimas de sequestro e resgatadas. O estudo encontrou uma sub-representação e deturpação das mulheres nas reportagens que foram atribuídas ao campo do jornalismo dominado pelos homens, que preferiam usar suas fontes masculinas em detrimento das questões que afetam as mulheres.
