Inserción de la mujer en el periodismo deportivo ecuatoriano

Abstract

Over the years, women have managed to stand out from the stereotypes that claimed a lady should stay at home, do the housework, and look after her family. Women's movements have raised their voices in protest to achieve equality and equal rights for women and men, rights such as the power to pay, to study, and practice whatever they want, and this is where the presence of women in sports journalism is born. Although there are still some features of inequality in the world, women occupy important positions in different social fields; although it has been a rather long process, the female voice is heard more often in the media concerning sports. This research speaks to that process for the insertion of women in the field of sports journalism.
