  • Clark the Savior: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Caitlin Clark’s WNBA Rookie Season

    Open AccessAshley Gardner, Peter Crowe et al.ARTICLECommunication & Sport2026References: 6

    The Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) was named the “fastest-growing brand in professional sports in 2024” by Forbes, with much attention centered on Indiana Fever’s number one draft pick, Caitlin Clark. Considering Clark is a white heterosexual woman, she stands in contrast to the WNBA’s historical and current demographic makeup, in which the majority are women of color and LGBTQIA+ (Yanity, 2024). This tension between societal majo…

    Open AccessIlina Arsova, Peter Crowe et al.ARTICLEInternational Review for the…2026References: 16

    Sports documentaries have become integral to sports culture and cinema internationally, with adventure sport films gaining significant acclaim in the past two decades.

  • Playing (& Smoking) by the Rules: Sport Media’s Racialized Coverage of Athlete Drug Use

    Open AccessPeter Crowe, Vanessa PeñaARTICLECommunication & Sport2024Cited by: 1References: 10

    Sports media research has often found that athletes are depicted differently based on stereotypes attached to their racialized bodies, and often along a Black/white racial binary. Furthermore, Black men often receive more and harsher penalties for drug use compared to all other racial and gender categories. Using critical discourse analysis, this study explores how NFL athletes who either openly admitted to using illicit drugs or failed National …

  • The Politics of Taking a Knee: Journalist Demographics and Media Analysis of the Colin Kaepernick Protest

  • Black U.S. Military Affiliated Perspectives on Sport Media's Coverage of Racial Representation and Athlete Activism

    Open AccessPeter Crowe, Adam Love et al.ARTICLEJournal of Sport and Social Issues2023References: 33

    Black U.S. military affiliated sport fans hold a unique place in society, as their multiple identities (i.e., racial and career) may possess conflicting elements. Militarism preaches nationalism, meritocracy, and bootstrapism, whereas Black sport activism questions if these “American” values extend to people of color. The current study interviewed Black military affiliated individuals ( N = 10) to understand their perceptions on nationalism and r…

  • Redemption for All? An Exploration of Racial Bias in ESPN.com’s Framing of Two Domestic Abuse Cases

    Peter CroweARTICLEHoward Journal of Communications2021

    Domestic violence/abuse is a well-known issue in both society and the sporting world. Sport news coverage on this topic varies depending upon the race of the athlete who committed the transgression. The current study critically analyzes ESPN.com’s coverage of a black athlete (Ray Rice) and a white athlete (Josh Brown) to determine if a major news corporation allows redemption for both athletes. The study looks to build upon Leonard’s thesis in Pl…

  • Polyphony in Vanuatu

    Peter CroweARTICLEEthnomusicology1981

    Although within an ensemble made up of homogeneous sound sources--especially vocal chorus-is a recurrent feature in Oceanic music, permitting clear distinctions of styles and textures, emphasis given by analysts to homogeneous groups tends to obscure wealth of other kinds of polyphonic musical invention in a country like Vanuatu.l For in Vanuatu, choral is conspicuous by its virtual absence. In Vanuatu there are many forms of concerted, multi-par…

  • Music and grade-taking on East Aoba

    Peter CroweARTICLEMusicology Australia1974

    Aobans are noted throughout the New Hebrides group for the success with which they are coping with cash economy. One therefore finds a thoroughly accultured society on many levels. At the same time there is, especially on East Aoba, where the Anglican church has the greatest number of adherents, a highly self-conscious revival of traditions. This manifests itself most importantly in the grade-taking rituals known as na hunggwe
