Mapping East Asian Sport Scholarship
While large-scale assessments of North American and Europe-based sport journals have been conducted, a specific look at how East Asia is explored in sport scholarship is lacking. To access knowledge domains of the region where the three consecutive Olympic and Paralympic Games (2018, 2020, 2022) were held, this study reviews 206 research articles published in five leading sport communication and sociology of sport journals to explore the publicat…
Agenda Diversity on European Broadcasters’ Social Media
Sport communication scholars have dedicated substantial attention to the role of media organizations in agenda diversity pertaining to sport, gender, national identity, and—to a lesser extent—disability. In this commentary, we overview the key findings specifically concerning the role of broadcasters in agenda diversity and the representations on European broadcasters’ social media accounts. While studies that capture descriptive data have signif…
“It Isn’t 50/50, but It’s Way Better Than 2%!”
Drawing on interviews with 27 sports journalists, we examine the shifting gatekeeping processes pertaining to U.S. women’s sports coverage. On the individual level, journalists shared favorable attitudes about women’s sports but noted a lack of knowledge among their peers and advocated diversity in hiring. Pertaining to routines, women’s sports are moving up in the news hierarchy and becoming a part of the assignment rotation. Journalists were co…
It Feels Like It’s in Our Back Yard”
Recent years have seen rising interest in and growing visibility of women’s sports. Concurrent with this “boom” in women’s sports are changing dynamics in the broader media landscape that affect news production both within and beyond the sports department. This study utilizes a place-based approach to understand how the places of news production play a role in journalists’ perceptions of the rising visibility of women’s sports and the resources t…
Feminist Media Scholarship in Communication & Sport
In this commentary, Antunovic and Bruce comment on the state of feminist sport media scholarship in Communication & Sport in response to Cummins and Hahn’s (2025) 10-year review. The journal has served as a “go to” space for feminist sport media studies scholarship. Hegemonic masculinity prevails as one of the most often referenced frameworks, but the journal’s publications have also engaged with a range of feminist frameworks. Scholars gravitate…
I’m Not Really Seeing it as Just a Sports Story”
New Heights” in Storytelling
Prior to the 2022 Beijing Paralympic Games, rights-holding broadcasters in multiple countries promised record-amount of coverage, including on digital platforms. This paper analyzes how NBC and CBC, the broadcasters in the U.S. and Canada, respectively, utilized social media platforms during the Paralympic Games. We employed two methodological approaches. The first draws on agenda diversity literature to provide a quantitative, descriptive analys…
Reimagining’ gender equality in media coverage
European entities (such as the European Union, European Commission, Council of Europe, and the European Broadcasting Union) published several reports between 2019 and 2022 that addressed gender representation in sports media. Drawing on multiple types of sources, including peer-reviewed research, the reports make recommendations for gender balance and gender equality in media coverage pertaining to national-level and international sports. This st…
“Time to Award Some Medals”
Rights-holding broadcasters of the Olympic Games play an integral role in conveying the values of the Olympic Movement, but few studies have examined these networks’ social media content. This investigation involved a comparative content analysis of rights-holding broadcasters’ official Olympic Twitter accounts in the United States (@NBCOlympics) and Australia (@7Olympics) during the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. Results indicate significant diff…
Feminist Sport Media Studies in SSJ

An empirical analysis of geographies of knowledge production ind…
Sport, gender, and national interest during the Olympics
Researchers have documented patterns in sports media coverage across a variety of geographical and media contexts extensively, but relatively few studies focus on the Central and Eastern European region. This study examines the agenda diversity of European public service media in Hungary, Croatia, and Slovenia on their sport-related Facebook accounts during the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. A content analysis identified featured sports, gender balanc…
Media Coverage of the Paralympics
Researchers have extensively documented the issues in quantity and quality of media coverage of the Paralympic Games. The lack of coverage and stereotypical representations can be attributed to a variety of structural and cultural factors, notably including journalistic norms and values. This scholarly commentary proposes a reconsideration of journalistic values in order to argue that sports journalists have a professional responsibility to cover…
A Public Service? Mediatization of the Olympic Games in Croatia and Slovenia
The Olympic Games are the largest mediated sporting mega-event, and broadcasters are instrumental in ensuring their exposure and financial viability. In the digital era, the Olympics navigate technological and societal changes that contest the values of sport, carry political and economic implications, and shape the relationship between the organizers and nation states. These interdependencies vary by global regions. This study examines the media…
Re-thinking Women's Sport Research
Despite decades of research and advocacy-women's professional sports continue to be considered second class to men's sports. The goal of this paper is to rethink how we state, present, and solve problems in women's sport. To affect true change, the wisdom of a broad stakeholder group was embraced such that varied perspectives could be considered. A three-question survey was developed to examine what key constituents believe is working in women's …
Social Media Use Among Olympians and Sport Journalists in Hungary
The Olympic Games are among the most followed events in the world, so athletes who participate there are exceptionally interesting for the media. This research investigated Olympians’ social media use, sport journalists’ attitudes about Olympians’ social media use, and the role of social media in the relationship between Olympians and sport journalists in Hungary. The findings suggest that most Hungarian Olympians do not think that being on socia…
This Isn’t Just About Us”
Historically, the world of sport has served as a symbolic site for social justice, ushering change in the wider society and inspiring movements that often do not directly or solely tie to sport. Recently, academics and sports journalists have noted a “rebirth” of athlete activism in the United States. Despite the activism of women of color, who have initiated and been at the center of these movements, and sportswomen’s outspokenness on a variety …
Powerful Lessons' in Women's Sport
In 2013, ESPN launched a series of documentaries to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Title IX. The Nine for IX documentaries tell stories of successful women in sport and tackle pertinent gender- and sex-related issues, promising to teach popular audiences about the untold histories of women's sport. Because of the series' place in ESPN's marketing efforts to reach women, we consider the series as ideological work through which women's sport his…
From Beach Nymph to Gridiron Amazon”
Although American football has primarily been a sport populated by boys and men, girls and women have participated for over 100 years. The media have covered these stories since the turn of the 20th century. Informed by feminist sport studies literature, this research examines media coverage of women footballers in the United States by conducting a textual analysis of over 100 articles from 1934 to 1979. Journalists who covered women encroaching …
Turned into the Women's Journal
Over the last few decades, scholars have dedicated much attention to the coverage of sportswomen in the media. However, few of these studies are situated within the Central Eastern European context. In this study, I analyze the textual and visual coverage of sportswomen in the Hungarian monthly sports magazine Presztízs Sport and examine the ways in which Hungarian national identity is articulated through discourses of sport, athletic competence,…
We wouldn’t say it to their faces”
In April 2016, a US-based independent sport media organization Just Not Sports launched #MoreThanMean, a digital media campaign to raise awareness about online harassment of women in sports journalism. The video quickly reached 3.7 million views and generated widespread coverage in mainstream news media, sports media, and online-only outlets. Using the #MoreThanMean campaign as a case study, this study assesses how discourses circulate in the spo…
The visibility of feminism in the Olympic Games
Over the past 35 years, feminist sports media studies scholars have rightly noted the underrepresentation of women’s sports and the objectification and trivialization of sportswomen in media. Toni
Ice Cream is Worse, and Joblessness is Not an Option”
A rise in informal labor, characterized by contracted and non-salaried positions, has been observed in many industry sectors including journalism. While opportunities for freelance journalists have increased, the journalism industry has simultaneously experienced mass layoffs. Using a survey (N = 411), with quantitative and qualitative measures, this study assesses freelancers’ experiences in the US context with a particular attention to gender. …
You Had to Cover Nadia Comaneci’
In the 1970s, women’s sport underwent significant change in the United States resulting in an increase of participation opportunities and funding at the interscholastic, intercollegiate, professional and international levels. Yet, media outlets continued to ignore women and, at best, portray them in gender stereotypical ways. Considering the lack of progress for women in sports media coverage, this study employs sport historian Jaime Schultz’s ‘p…

In the changing news environment, young adult audiences, often dubbed ‘the Internet generation’, have increasingly gravitated toward online sources of news and information, raising questions about the nature and amount of news consumed. This study joins many others in looking at the emerging processes of news consumption among, in this case, college students, using focus group interviews to further examine how they go about obtaining news.

Just Another Story”
Since 1972, when the U.S. Congress passed Title IX, girls’ and women’s participation in sport exponentially increased. Yet, major gender inequities remain, including in media coverage. Feminist sports media scholars have pointed to journalists’ resistance toward Title IX as one explanation for these inequities. To further examine the relationship between Title IX and coverage of women’s sport, this study draws upon oral history interviews with 14…

Media Disparity
For decades, scholars have repeatedly found the inequity of gender representations in informational and entertainment media.

A Brief Taxonomy of Sports that Were Not Quite American National Pastimes
Several sports have served as American national pastimes over the course of the nation's history. Horse racing, hunting, prize fighting, baseball, football, and basketball have waxed and waned in a long series of debates over what constitutes ‘true' national pastimes. Unlike some nations that have declared national pastimes by governmental fiat, US national games emerge from organic and sometimes chaotic cultural processes. An alternative history…
