“…We analyzed whether the accounts that belonged to citizens (not institutions) were from men, women, or nonbinary citizens (Butler, 1988; Richards et al, 2016), in order to understand whether the accounts the media began to follow are gender-balanced or if they respond to other long-lasting patterns of media behavior in relation to gender, such as the disproportion in the use of male sources over female ones (Armstrong, 2004; Armstrong & Gao, 2011; Armstrong & Nelson, 2005; Bustamante, 1994; De Swert & Hooghe, 2010; Moreno-Castro et al, 2019; Zoch & Van Slyke Turk, 1998), or the unbalanced representation of men over women in the news and in the media (Armstrong, 2004; Armstrong & Gao, 2011; Caro González et al, 2014; Len-Ríos et al, 2005; López González, 2002; Shor et al, 2015), which could be related to the underrepresentation of women in power positions (Carli & Eagly, 2002; Connell, 2013; Kubu, 2017; Madsen & Andrade, 2018; Painter-Morland, 2011). We also crossed this data with the types of accounts and with the number of followers.…”
