Newspaper Coverage of the Sugar Ray Leonard Wife Abuse Story
Sociology of Sport Journal,1993.10, 119-134 O 1993 Human Kinetics Publishers, Inc. Outside the Frame: Newspaper Coverage of the Sugar Ray Leonard Wife Abuse Story Michael A. Messner William S. Solomon University of Southern California Rutgers University This article analyzes the print media's ideological framing of the 1991 story of boxer Sugar Ray Leonard's admission of having physically abused his wife and abused cocaine and alcohol. We examined all news stories and editorials on the Leonard story in two major daily newspapers and one national sports daily. We found that all three papers framed the story as a "drug story," while ignoring or marginalizing the "wife abuse" story. We argue that sports writers utilized an existing ideological "jocks-on-drugs" media package that framed this story as a moral drama of individual sin and public redemption. Finally, we describe and analyze the mechanisms through which the wife abuse story was ignored or marginalized. Cette etude porte sur le cadre idkologique fa~onnbpar les media kcrits en ce qui concerne la nouvelle de I'annonce faite en 1991 par le boxeur Sugar Ray Leonard qu'il avait physiquement abusk de sa femme et abusk de la cocaiize et de I'alcool. Tous les articles et kditoriaux de deux journaux quotidiens et d'une revue sportive nationalefurent analysks. Les rksultats indiquent que les trois sources ont repris la nouvelle pour la presenter duns un cadre accentuant I'aspect "abus de drogue" et marginalisant ou ignorant I'aspect "violence conjugale." I1 est aussi suggkrk que les reporters sportifs ont utilisk un cadre idbologique dkja existant (celui du "sportif dope") qui eut pour effet de presenter la nouvelle en tant que dilemme moral ou il y a pbchk individuel et rkdemption publique.

Good effortBy ihaschThis is a good, solid biography of my favorite boxer of all time. Hagler is a fighter whose stature grows with time. You look back on his career, on the tough road he had to the title, on the honest way he fought. The man was probably the last of his kind. As others have noted, Hagler himself does not participate (maybe we will see an autobiography some day) but the book is well sourced and well written.

Preparation & How-To’s • Print photos of boxers of the 1940s for participants to view or display them on a TV screen. • Print a large-print copy of this discussion activity for participants to follow along with and take with them for further study. • Read the article aloud and encourage participants to ask questions. • Use Discussion Starters to encourage conversation about this topic. • Read the Boxing Trivia Q & A and solicit answers from participants. Boxers of the 1940s Introduction The 1940s were a unique heyday for the sport of boxing, with some iconic boxing greats, momentous bouts, charismatic rivalries, and the introduction of televised matches. There was also a slowdown in boxing during this time due to the effects of World War II. History Humans have fought each other with their fists since the dawn of time, and boxing as a sport has been around nearly as long. Boxing, where two people participate in hand-to-hand combat for sport, began at least several thousand years ago in the ancient Near East. A relief from Sumeria (present-day Iraq) from the third millennium BC shows two facing figures with fists striking each other’s jaws. This is the earliest known depiction of boxing. Similar reliefs and paintings have also been found from the third and second millennium onward elsewhere in the ancient Middle East and Egypt.
