The movement meets the press: the 1968 Miss America Pageant protest -- The movement makes the news: feature stories on women's liberation in 1970 -- Magazines and the marketing of the movement: the March 1970 Ladies' Home Journal protest -- Fixing the meaning of the movement: ABC's May 1970 "Women's Liberation" documentary -- Making a spectacle of the movement: the August 26, 1970, Women's Strike for Equality -- After 1970: second-wave feminism, mediated popular memory, and Gloria Steinem.
In 1970, ABC, CBS, and NBC - the 'Big Three' of the pre-cable television era - discovered the feminist movement. From the famed sit-in at Ladies' Home Journal to multi-part feature stories on the movement's ideas and leaders, nightly news broadcasts covered feminism more than in any year before or since, bringing women's liberation into American homes. In this book, Bonnie J. Dow uses case studies of key media events to delve into the ways national TV news mediated the emergence of feminism's second wave.
