Men Who "Champion" Women

In this episode, we’re going to be tackling the topic of “Men Who Champion Women” trend that’s been emphasized by the recent “Me Too” movement. Movies made in the past few years (Roger Ailes, Harvey Weinstein) that center around women who are supported by male industry moguls, as well as noticing, for example, Fox News anchors who are women, but their roles and positions come with the price of exploitation. These roles are limited in scope and range and tend to typecast these actresses as objects. We also discuss the trend on the music side of the industry and how a lot of female artists including Demi Lovato, Kesha, and many others are impacted by this system.
