Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: In January of 2007, Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama both announced that they would seek the Democratic party nomination for president. This study examines the press coverage of these announcements in the top six circulating newspapers in the United States and finds that despite leading in the polls, Clinton got less coverage than Obama. She was also more likely to have her title dropped and be referred to by her first name. However, Clinton was more likely to be quoted, had more of her policy positions included in stories about her, and was less likely to be physically described than was Obama. These results are analyzed in the context of historical studies on the press coverage of previous women who have run for president, and the author argues that while there was clearly some movement from a woman-oriented frame to that of a candidate-oriented frame, sexism still plays a role in coverage of women candidates.
