Miss Representation is a documentary about the way the US media portrays women. It just premiered at Sundance, no word on when it might be released here. Looks interesting from the trailer - I couldn't track down a transcript, but if anyone finds one please do leave the link in comments:

We had the east coast premiere of Miss Representation at The Athena Film Festival. I know that it has been picked up by the Oprah Network here in the US, but I also know that the director is working on a full media literacy campaign to go along with the film.
