Abstract

The LGBT rights movement has been carried out all over the world. With the increasing attention of all walks of life, media force has gradually emerged in such equal rights activities. With the development of information technology, people’s access to information is almost monopolized by the media, and most of the relevant media have a certain political color. It is necessary to explore the changes of the role of the media in the 1940s, the 1970s, and our current times for an appropriate analysis of the LGBT rights movement. This paper mainly discusses about the role of the media in LGBT rights movements around the world, especially focus on the United States and China— with a particular attention to LGBT developments in the 1940s, the 1970s, and the current era.
