  • „Tennis Muss Immer Tennis Bleiben!“
    Dieses Werk ist lizenziert unter einer Creative Commons Namensnennung 3.0 Deutschland Lizenz, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/de/ http://medialogic.hypotheses.org „Tennis muss immer Tennis bleiben!“ Eine qualitative Studie zur Untersuchung der Medialisierung im Tennissport – aus Sicht der Akteure. von Johanna Röhr Einleitung „Sport ist vielfältig, emotional, verbindet und bietet Identifikation sowie Vorbilder. Für Sport interessieren sich Menschen aus allen gesellschaftli- chen Bereichen, deswegen senden wir Sport.“ (ARD, 2015) In den 1990er Jahren war Tennis die am meisten gesendete Sportart der öffentlich- rechtlichen Sender – dank Boris Becker, dem bekanntesten deutschen Tennisspieler. Nicht nur seine Erfolge sind ein Grund seiner Popularität, sondern auch seine Per- sönlichkeit, Emotionalität und sein Talent, die Massenmedien zu seinen Gunsten zu nutzen. Was aber ist darüber hinaus der Grund, dass einige Sportarten häufiger im Fernsehen gezeigt werden als andere? Welche Anpassungen kann eine Sportart vornehmen, um attraktiver für die mediale Berichterstattung zu werden? Diese Frage versucht die Theorie der Medialisierung zu beantworten. Im Kern dieses Konstrukts geht es um die Folgen einer Anpassung von „Organisationen und Akteuren an die System- und Handlungslogik der Massenmedien“ (Westerbarkey, 1995, S. 155). Meyen (2014) hat Medialisierung mit Hilfe der Akteur-Struktur- Dynamiken von Schimank (1988) theoretisch fundiert und für empirische Arbeiten zugänglich gemacht. Ausgehend von der Theorie Schimanks kann die Medialisierung im Profisport folgendermaßen erklärt werden: Akteure sozialer Funktionssysteme, z.B. des Spitzensports, orientieren sich in ihren Handlungen vermehrt an der Logik der Massenmedien, um attraktiver für eine mediale Berichterstattung zu sein und Aufmerksamkeit zu generieren (vgl. Imhof, 2006; Meyen, 2014). Viele der bisher durchgeführten Studien im Bereich Medialisierung und Sport gehen in einem ersten und wichtigen Schritt von Dokumenten- und Inhaltsanalysen aus.

  • The String Theory (Dfw)
    THE STRING THEORY (DFW) Originally published in the July 1996 issue. Scroll to the bottom to read David Foster Wallace's footnotes. When Michael T. Joyce of Los Angeles serves, when he tosses the ball and his face rises to track it, it looks like he's smiling, but he's not really smiling–his face's circumoral muscles are straining with the rest of his body to reach the ball at the top of the toss's rise. He wants to hit it fully extended and slightly out in front of him–he wants to be able to hit emphatically down on the ball, to generate enough pace to avoid an ambitious return from his opponent. Right now, it's 1:00, Saturday, July 22, 1995, on the Stadium Court of the Stade Jarry tennis complex in Montreal. It's the first of the qualifying rounds for the Canadian Open, one of the major stops on the ATP's "hard- court circuit,"[1] which starts right after Wimbledon and climaxes at N.Y.C.'s U.S. Open. The tossed ball rises and seems for a second to hang, waiting, cooperating, as balls always seem to do for great players. The opponent, a Canadian college star named Dan Brakus, is a very good tennis player. Michael Joyce, on the other hand, is a world-class tennis player. In 1991, he was the top- ranked junior in the United States and a finalist at Junior Wimbledon [2] is now in his fourth year on the ATP Tour, and is as of this day the seventy-ninth-best tennis player on planet earth.
