- Authors
Olveira-Araujo, Rubén
- Abstract
Media portrayal of trans(gender) identities have multiplied in recent years. In order to contribute to the scarce academic literature on transvestism in the area of Communication, the media coverage of the murder of a transvestite man in Castilla y León has been examined through a content analysis. The results indicate that the press continues mixing different facts of sexual diversity. Moreover, from confusing transsexualism with cross-dressing, now it seems that cross-dressing is confused with transsexualism. Despite all this, they also suggest that media coverage of sexual diversity has improved.
