Video | Miss Representation - Women in Media

Writer/Director Jennifer Siebel Newsom brings together some of America's most influential women in politics, news, and entertainment to give us an inside look at the media's message. Miss Representation explores women's under-representation in positions of power by challenging the limited and often disparaging portrayal of women in the media. As one of the most persuasive and pervasive forces in our culture, media is educating yet another generation that women's primary value lies in their youth, beauty and sexuality—not in their capacity as leaders. Through the riveting perspectives of youth and the critical analysis of top scholars, Miss Representation will change the way you see media.

IDOL

A rather large selection of photographs of my biggest idols. Not just because of their inspirational looks and style, but also for their lifestyle and the names they made for themselves. But there's something particular about the girls of the 60's, all are wide eyed waifs, with long mousey brown hair, kohl - lined eyes and symetrical faces (minus a few exceptions). You can spot a girl with a '60's style face' from a mile off, I don't know if it's their facial expression or the 'open mouthed' look, I don't know how to explain it but hopefully people understand what I mean. For example, Abbey Lee Kershaw. There's something about her face that makes me insantly imagine her being on the pages of Vogue in the 60's. I hope someone can agree with me and that I haven't just created this little fascination with huge eyes and fringes in my mind.
