[quote=Anonymous]http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/23/film-criticism-gender-study Last year, Meryl Streep made headlines when she spoke out against gender imbalance in film criticism, telling reporters she personally counted the critics on Rotten Tomatoes and found a huge disparity between the number of male and female writers. Now, a new study from San Diego State University backs Streep up, revealing that a whopping 73 percent of Rotten Tomatoes’ top critics are men. The university’s Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film conducted a study earlier this year analyzing 5,776 reviews written by 247 of Rotten Tomatoes’ top critics. (The site designates some writers as “top critics” if they write for a major publication or are generally considered to be influential.) The results of that study, which were released Thursday, found that men drastically outnumber women in film criticism.[/quote]
