Summary/Abstract: The social system of values is created by the way of women representation in mass media. Female characters are discriminated in comparison to men. There are no women in serious newspaper content, or in other words their place should be in the entertainment contents. Such an attitude in the media is also a kind of reflection of power arrangement in society.
