Killer, But Make It Beautiful: The Gendered Language of Crime Reporting

deltin55 • 1970-1-1 05:00:00 • views 25

Summary of this article



  • Coverage focuses on looks, beauty, motherhood, or “immorality” instead of evidence and law.
  • Women are judged for both the crime and for violating gender norms, unlike men.
  • Media either glamorises female accused or softens violence against women by obscuring perpetrators.







It was the “rarest of rare cases”. A first of its kind. It ended up being a spectacle.
