COMM 164A: Race, Gender & Public Health

"When the news formula is 'Lose weight, get more energy and have better sex,' does the community thrive? How do race and gender play out in public health? What's the media's role in shaping our perceptions? Learn about new ways to investigate the landscape of health in a community and study the influence of existing news coverage on the discourse about public health."
