This thesis addresses the risks of practicing the profession of journalism in Brazil and the impact this has on the perspective of women journalists from Rio de Janeiro and how this affects their personal and professional daily lives. The attacks always hit their bodies and their morals carrying the mark of patriarchy and evidencing a machismo and misogyny in a disproportionate power relationship. Intimidations are used to discredit the professional, her reputation, and to impose her silence. The violence, the stress, and the precariousness of the work have caused sickness and put in jeopardy the access to freedom of expression, bringing consequences to civil rights in a democratic society. It points out the need to build gender equity policies in communication companies to ensure greater protection for women journalists who are the majority in the profession.
