Women's Media Center: 2019 review of gender and non-acting Emmy primetime nominations - Women’s Media Center

A deeper examination of these four influential sets of categories illustrates the male domination: The number of women directors remains woefully low at 19, or 11 percent, compared to 155 men, or 89 percent. Women received only 27 percent of editing nominations, with 73 percent going to men. Women represent only 28 percent of the nominees for writing, while 72 percent are men. Female producers still account for only 31 percent of nominees, while men dominate with 69 percent.

Women lost ground in the technical categories. Female nominees dipped a percentage point to 34 percent. There are six categories that are exclusively male. “The importance of Emmy nominations for women in front of and behind the camera cannot be overstated. Nominations can lead to better pay and more opportunities, but women will never have a chance at equal status in nominations until they have equal employment and leadership opportunities in the industry,” said Julie Burton, president and CEO of the Women’s Media Center.

“These numbers show the clear gender disparity in behind-the-scenes roles for women in network, cable and streaming,” said Jane Fonda, WMC co-founder. “The Women’s Media Center will continue to put pressure on Hollywood until there is equality in television.” In an industry that has long struggled with diversity and inclusion, a few women broke barriers. DuVernay and Knowles-Carter both made history by being the first black women to earn multiple nominations for directing in a single year. DuVernay is nominated for writing, directing, and producingfor Netflix, which has a total of 16 nominations. Knowles-Carter is nominated for writing, directing, producing, and musical direction for.
