Abstract

Movements like the #MeToo, Time's up or 8M, have been determinant to include feminism in the international agenda setting in the last years. However, as discussed in this article, the beginning of the inclusion of feminism and structural social change in the Portuguese and Spanish media is in the last years of the dictatorships of both countries, when some important professionals, such as Carmen Sarmiento and Maria Antónia Palla, include a feminist focus on media content to transfer to citizens a new model of women based on independence and equality. This article starts from the example of these two women journalists, through the analysis of interviews and their journalistic productions, to evaluate the importance of active minorities in certain professional fields, and how they managed to put women on the news agenda.
