New women’s page thesis

I just received this thesis about women’s page content and editor training through ILL. It was done at the University of Wisconsin in 1967. It has some interesting results about the background of women’s page journalists – especially the formal education that many had in home economics.

In the content analysis, the author reports that at larger circulation newspapers devoted the most space to food. The smaller devoted the most space to family news – this included columns like “Dear Abby.”
