Abstract
Media play an important role in spreading cultural models. Through their narratives they shape the social discourse on gender-based violence and contribute to create and reinforce stereotypes and prejudice about the role of women in society. This article
analyzes the representation of gender-based violence in the discourse of media in order to understand how they can favor the
persistence of those relations of material and symbolic domination, that still too often lead to gender-based violence.
