This video from youtube shows how disturbingly sexism is prevalent not just in our society but in our media as well. Our media is definitely to be blamed for propagating gender stereotypes to millions of viewers everyday which in a chain of reactions has lating effects on the minds of the viewers. Our media needs to be more appropriate and if they do not change, then we should educate the masses about gender discrimination and its severe impact not just on women but in society in general. This video vividly illustrates how some men holding important positions in the media misuse their power by passing highly sexist remarks and openly demeaning a woman who according to them is not 'good enough' on national television.
