In the world of journalism, “researcher has found out that male journalist is
greater in number as compare to female journalist.” (Bazelon, E, 2012) In this industry, the number of males has
eventually dominion the position of journalism as their main occupation. For
example, “most of the male journalism is mainly focus on the issue which
concern to the politics, economic and foreign policy on the current market.” (Bazelon,

However, this issue does not lead to stereotype among genders as there are
still hands full of female journalism working in this role. For example, they
still associate with the media to provide info and coverage of news for the
society.
As we move on the female journalism, “some people would claim that most of
the female reporters are mainly assigned for the soft beat topics which would
only able to covers topic such as entertainment, travels and or etc.” (Shaukat A, 2012) One of these reason is
because, “the number of women writers who are involve on the journalism media are
hardly published as their facts and content are not that solid as compare to
male journalism.” (Doll, J, 2012)
Apart from that, these could also conclude that some women are more towards
a feminine ways where they are “less confident enough or ‘chicken out’ when
they have the opportunity to speak out” (Shaukat A, 2012) Therefore, these
could lead them a challenge as compare to male in the role of journalism. As a
result of these, “gender based on stereotyping have eventually beat the job
position of journalism which male are more comfortable to hold on this
profession.”(Shaukat, A, 2012)
