The media has a tremendous ability to influence, change and shape public opinion. The presence of women in the field of media is as necessary as their presence in any field of life, as they are half of society, and they have their thoughts, culture and issues that must appear and be presented with strength and seriousness in the media.
The "presence of Palestinian women in the modern media" is represented in two aspects; The first, in which the woman is the media, and the second, the woman as portrayed by the media.
Here we raise several questions about the image of women in the Palestinian media, about the extent of the active presence of Palestinian women in the modern media, and if the Palestinian media is a decision-maker in the field of media, and about how the work of the Palestinian media affects women's basic and important issues such as education, work and respect for their rights, humanity and dignity.
The paper deals with the obstacles that women face while working in the media, and what is the social responsibility towards them.
The paper presents some important recommendations to reach a sound media strategy for women.
