Great start!

What I liked about Mary’s inaugural post:

*She used several concrete examples, with links to images (note: you can also imbed images by clicking on the picture icon)
*She explained her personal interest in the topic
*She related her analysis on radio to the broader discussion of media

Your comments were on target. I particularly liked Chrissy’s and Sylvie’s comments for providing examples from their everyday radio listening and commenting specifically on the ads Mary referenced.

Questions to think about:

Does radio get away with more stereotypes/sexism than other media? Does the lack of visual images and very targeted marketing mean it relies more on stereotype to get the point across? What do you think about morning DJ shows that feature men's and women's banter?
