Dr. Blumell’s research centers on human rights in media, particularly women's rights, with a focus on digital news reporting, sexual harassment in newsrooms, and hegemonic influences. She investigates how news platforms cover issues like sexual violence, refugee representation, and LGBT+ narratives, often through feminist and critical discourse lenses. Her work frequently examines gendered journalistic norms, the #MeToo movement, and the framing of high-profile cases such as those of Anita Hill and Christine Blasey Ford.
Her recent publications (2020–2025) reveal a strong thematic focus on workplace sexism, anti-harassment policies, and cross-national media analysis, especially in African and Western contexts. She frequently collaborates with scholars like Doreen Mulupi and Jessica Huemmer, producing interdisciplinary work at the intersection of journalism, gender studies, and organizational behavior.
Her scientific contributions include numerous peer-reviewed articles and encyclopedia chapters, but no formal awards are mentioned in the available texts.
Dr. Blumell supervises research students, including Yasmine Feital Calcado Barbosa. She has also co-produced the documentary Good Girls Don’t Tell, highlighting her applied work in media advocacy. Her research has practical implications for newsroom reform, policy development, and media ethics training.
She is based at City, University of London, in the Department of Journalism, contributing to both teaching and research in media and communication.
