Style Guide: REPORTING ON PEOPLE WITH HIV AND AIDS

Journalists have a substantial influence on the public’s attitudes about HIV and AIDS. The emphasis the media often places on breaking news and reporting from law enforcement officials can give people a skewed view of individuals living with HIV, leading to misperceptions and even discrimination. This style guide notes ways in which newsrooms can present a more accurate picture of people living with HIV or AIDS.

GLAAD Media Reference Guide - 10th Edition

GLAAD's Media Reference Guide is intended to be used by journalists reporting for mainstream media outlets and by creators in entertainment media who want to tell LGBTQ people's stories fairly and accurately. It is not intended to be an all-inclusive glossary of language used within the LGBTQ community, nor is it a prescriptive guide for LGBTQ people.
