A study that tries to investigate the 'discrimination' against female media figures in Jordan, especially in Jordanian social laws and social security terms mainly in work field, has shown that the percentage of female journalists holding leading roles does not exceed 1%.

This comes despite having females holding a position of Chief Editor in a daily newspaper issued in English, Editor in Chief of a magazine, and witnessing an increased number of female workers in the field.

The results of this study shall be introduced during a ceremony for the International Federation of Journalists in the event of the International Woman's Day that will take place in Manama on the 8^th of March.
