Today, it is an ethical obligation to guarantee information free of discrimination and stereotypes towards minorities and women. Public broadcasters and newspapers monitor the representation of the female figure to ensure pluralism of themes, subjects and languages, and to contribute to the creation of social cohesion through their schedules and programs. The Global Media Monitoring project monitors the use of stereotypes and discrimination against women in the global media, including the Italian media. The association of women journalists GiULia Giornaliste, also known as Giornaliste Unite Libere Autonome (United Free Independent Women Journalists), founded in 2011, with its report “Sui generis”, highlights the very limited space given to women’s bylines in newspaper editorials, especially when the news in question concerns topics traditionally covered by men. Understanding the detection mechanism is useful to learn to recognize the stereotypes hidden behind the narratives in order to “decolonize” journalism from the male-dominated, sexist, racist, homophobic matrix with which the information is imbued.
