Social protest is truly a global phenomenon with recent examples including protests in Asia, North America, and the Middle East. This study investigates how gender representations in protest coverage differ not only based on characteristics of the protests but also location and other factors. Examining 220 newspaper stories from four global regions, a content analysis revealed that gender portrayals differ in part by the region of the world. Further, women were most likely to appear when the story was nonpolitical, the tactics were more peaceful, and when the disparity between male and female sources was lower. Implications for newspaper and gender research are discussed.
