  "account": "Gloria Steinem, the prominent feminist activist and journalist, has passed away at the age of 92, her foundation announced on Instagram. The statement revealed that she had passed away peacefully in her New York City home, surrounded by those who cherished her. Steinem, renowned for her work as a writer and magazine editor, co-founded the Women's Action Alliance more than half a century ago, an organization committed to combating sexism. Her career began in New York during the 1970s as a journalist, leading her to co-found Ms. magazine, a pioneering publication that focused on women's issues beyond the confines of domesticity and beauty standards. In the 1970s, Steinem emerged as a leading advocate for women's reproductive rights, rejoicing in the US Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which secured women's constitutional right to abortion. This monumental victory was a fresh memory for her, as she later witnessed the decision's reversal nearly half a century later.",
