Media and the Perpetuation of Western Bias: Deviations of Ideality

Alternate Title
Media’s Role in the Reinforcement of Negative Stereotypes of Indigenous Identity and the Manifestations of Violence toward Murdered Women
Argues that media portrayals of missing and murdered Indigenous women utilize stereotypes and fail to educate the public about how the marginalization produced by colonialism makes these women vulnerable to violence. Looks specifically at how the murders of Winnipeg's Selena Keeper and Calgary's Lacey Jones-McKnight were covered in the Winnipeg Free Press, Calgary Herald and National Post.
