Description

Explore a deep feminist rhetorical examination of how gender and torture are portrayed in modern media. In this Routledge study, Gronnvoll analyzes the media coverage surrounding Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay to uncover how specific narratives shape public perception. Beyond news reports, this book examines how popular entertainment, such as television serials like 24, uses torture as a plot device. The research reveals how social outrage often centers on the gender performance of female perpetrators, suggesting that the notoriety of certain cases is tied directly to the gender of those involved. This academic work provides a necessary look at the language used by commentators and the way media framing influences our understanding of human rights and gender roles in a post-9/11 world. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in communication, rhetoric, and media studies.
