INTRODUCTION By Diana Nyad For two decades, the GENDER IN TELEVISED SPORTS report has tracked the progress— as well as the lack of progress—in the coverage of women’s sports on television news and highlights shows. One of the positive outcomes derived from past editions of this valuable study has been a notable improvement in the often‐derogatory ways that sports commentators used to routinely speak of women athletes. The good news in this report is that there is far less insulting and overtly sexist treatment of women athletes than there was twenty or even ten years ago.

PUB DATE 1999-01-00 NOTE 25p. PUB TYPE Reports - Research (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Athletes; Athletics; *Behavior Patterns; *Moral Values; News Media; Programming (Broadcast); Social Behavior; Social Values; *Sportsmanship; *Television Viewing; Violence IDENTIFIERS *Broadcast Sports; *ESPN; Television Announcers ABSTRACT This study collected and described the verbal comments made during 102 editions of ESPN's Sportscenter, a sports news program. Comments made by the programs anchors, news journalists, players, coaches, owners, etc., believed to potentially convey to viewers what was normative or inappropriate behavior for sports participants, were recorded. A total of 1,706 comments were recorded, with an average of 17 comments per program. Comments used in this study pertained to sportsmanship (good and bad), fights/battery (punches, pushes, and fights), and immoral behavior (violation of laws or NCAA rules) taking place within the sports setting that were prohibited by game rules. Of the 1,706 comments, 355 fell within those categories. Data analysis indicated that sport as presented on Sportscenter was rife with poor sportsmanship, violence, and immoral behavior. Of the 355 comments, 352 were negative. Good sportsmanship and acts considered to be morally uplifting were rarely commented on.(Contains 14 references.)
