Sport and the media

managing the nexus

The relationship between sport and the media is the defining commercial connection for both industries at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

As such, the sport media relationship must be managed.

The book is designed to equip students within sport management and related courses who need to understand the nature and scope of the sport media nexus, as well as develop the skills to manage the media promotion and coverage of sport organisations.

• Historical development of sport and the media

• Ways in which audiences and advertisers drive the media coverage of sport
• Ways in which the media industry generally and the sport industry more specifically are structured to produce content/news/products
