SPME101 Foundations of Sports Media
3 Credits
This course covers the relationships between sports industries, athletes, media, and audiences. After a brief study of the earliest “coverage” of sports during the ancient Olympic games, we will look at the evolution of sports communication from early sports writers, through early sports broadcast announcers, to the current age, where athletes create their own sports media via Twitter and other social media.
