| Abstract: |
The paper discusses who are the voices in the opinion pieces on #MeToo in the Portuguese mainstream press. It starts from the idea that opinion spaces are fundamental for conveying different points of view in society and for strengthening democratisation and gender justice. It reflects on existing hierarchies and calls for the importance of a 'place of speech' that can bring the voices of women and feminists to the centre of the discussion about harassment and sexual violence. This analysis helps to refocus attention on the sphere of media production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
