Its been a long day!

I think I have finally decided what the title of my essay for CHI is going to be! It's been a long day researching and I have found a couple interesting points I want to elaborate on. I made sure to focus only on that today and put all my other subjects aside so that I could really get into this.
So I've been reading 'Feminist Television Criticism', 'Media, Gender and Identity' and 'Gender and the Media' today to try and get a hold of what it is I want to talk about.
I went for a walk this morning to clear my head before settling down to this research and the whole time I walked I was thinking about how I was going to go about this topic, because I am easily intimidated by large amounts of text and information. I figure I want my question to be something along the lines of "How is Feminism represented in the media?" and then I want to refer back to ways it was shown in the past and also refer to examples from the present. That way it won't be too much to digest for me but also the people who will have to read this.
I want to look at some journals too but for now I'm going to continue my research from these books and highlight some things I want to read up on more.

Until the next time!
