Course Title
Sports Media
Catalog Description
Investigates the social uses and cultural meanings of sport and sports media, which are integral components of global media industries, from the production of spectacles to sport-related videogaming and e-sports, from the cultivation of brand identities to the formation of fan cultures. As sports are increasingly experienced through media, this course explores the role of media in shaping values, beliefs, emotions, and norms that we associate with sports and athletes, including contestations over race, class, gender, sexuality, religion, and national identity.
