| dc.description.abstract | On January 7, 2024, Hiru TV primetime news reported that the body of a woman had been exhumed by a person allegedly suffering from substance abuse disorder. The report referred to the deceased using the term “Beauty’s”. Such references to physical appearance can contribute to the objectification and stereotyping of women. Media outlets are encouraged to report facts objectively and avoid sensational language. | |
