Abstract
This article considers the importance of intersectionality in reporting. In this
article I claim that the characterisation of the same-sex marriage debate in
Australian mainstream media prevents any serious, nuanced evaluation of the
movement. Through an analysis of recent news reports and opinion pieces,
I illustrate the way that implicit dichotomous assumptions and language use
create a myopic understanding of the same-sex marriage debate.
Regards,
Tony
