Parents Television Council<\/a> just released their new data comparing the incidence of violence against women and girls by CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX during prime time sweeps in 2004 and 2009 (report here<\/a>).\u00a0 They found a 120% increase in depictions of violence against women and girls amidst a steady rate of overall frequency of violence.<\/p>\n

They write:<\/p>\n

Cumulatively, across all study periods and all networks, the most frequent type of violence was beating (29%), followed by credible threats of violence (18%), shooting (11%), rape (8%), stabbing (6%), and torture (2%).\u00a0 Violence against women resulted in death 19% of the time.<\/p>\n

Violence towards women or the graphic consequences of violence tends overwhelmingly to be depicted (92%) rather than implied (5%) or described (3%).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So those’re the numbers, how about some examples of the normalization of violence against women: one<\/a>, two<\/a>, three<\/a>, four<\/a>, five<\/a>, six<\/a>, seven<\/a>, eight<\/a>, nine<\/a>, ten<\/a>, eleven<\/a>, twelve<\/a>, thirteen<\/a>, fourteen<\/a>, fifteen<\/a>, sixteen<\/a>, seventeen<\/a>, eighteen<\/a>, nineteen<\/a>, twenty<\/a>, twenty-one<\/a>, twenty-two<\/a>, twenty-three<\/a>, twenty-four<\/a>, twenty-five<\/a>, twenty-six<\/a>, twenty-seven<\/a>, twenty-eight<\/a>, twenty-nine<\/a>, thirty<\/a>, thirty-one<\/a>, thirty-two<\/a>, thirty-three<\/a>, thirty-four<\/a>, thirty-five<\/a>, thirty-six<\/a>, thirty-seven<\/a>, thirty-eight<\/a>, thirty-nine<\/a>, forty<\/a>, forty-one<\/a>, forty-two<\/a>, and forty-three<\/a>.<\/p>\n
