If you look at images posted to Facebook by news organizations, you are far more likely to see men than women, according to a new study from Pew Research Center.
Pew analyzed images posted (publicly) to the social network by 17 national news outlets between April 1 and June 30, 2018, using a computational method it calls machine vision to determine the genders of people who were depicted in them.
Men made up 67% of the 53,067 individuals who were identified in those photos, while women accounted for just 33%.

And in news photos that contained identifiable human faces, 53% showed exclusively men, while just 22% were women-only.
