  • EXAMINING the REPRESENTATION of the FEMALE SIDELINE REPORTER by LORI AMBER ROESSNER (Under the Direction O
    SIDELINED BY GENDER: EXAMINING THE REPRESENTATION OF THE FEMALE SIDELINE REPORTER by LORI AMBER ROESSNER (Under the Direction of Leara Rhodes) ABSTRACT Tune into college football on any given autumn Saturday, and you are like to observe young, beautiful female sideline reporters. In this study, feminist critical theory and textual analysis are utilized to examine the representation of the female sideline reporter in the 2005- 2006 NCAA Division I-A college football bowl season. To date, little research has been conducted on the representation and role of female sideline reporters. Analysis showed that female sideline reporters were under-represented, objectified and commodified in four select games of the 2005-2006 NCAA Division I-A college football bowl season. The study revealed that representations of female sideline reporters reproduce masculine hegemony. This study adds to the knowledge of masculine hegemony in sports casting which was more stated than corroborated. This study lays the groundwork for future examination of representations of women in journalism through the lenses of feminist critical theory and textual analysis. INDEX WORDS: Female Sideline Reporter, Sports Broadcasting, Journalism, Textual Analysis, Feminist Critical Theory, Masculine Hegemony, Patriarchy.

In dealing Reagan one of the most dramatic foreign policy set­ backs of his presidency, and the first substantive override of a Reagan veto, the Senate rebuffed administration pleas that the punitive economic sanctions would prove most harmful to South Africa's blacks. Five previ­ ous Reagan vetos, on lesser.is­ sues, had been reversed. Despite fierce lobbying by Reagan and other White House officials, and members of the Senate supportive of the admin­ istration's policy, the final vote showed the president falling 13 votes short of the 34 needed to sustain the veto.
