  • A Longitudinal Study of Sports Journalists Live
    FROM INSTRUMENTAL USE TO INSTITUTIONAL ROUTINE: A LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF SPORTS JOURNALISTS LIVE-TWEETING THE DAYTONA 500 by ELIZABETH MARIE EMMONS ANDREW C. BILLINGS, COMMITTEE CHAIR KIM BISSELL JASON BLACK WILSON LOWREY JOHN VINCENT A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Communication and Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2014 Copyright Elizabeth Marie Emmons 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation studies how sports journalists are adapting to the emerging institutional requirement to use Twitter to live-tweet during sporting events. This phenomenon is the result of the rise of the “second screen,” wherein stakeholders of a live televised event convene to discuss the event online via their second screen, the computing device they use while watching the event. Institutional theory and the news ecology model framework offer a basis for considering reasons why professional journalists have shifted to live-tweeting during sporting events, which is a distinct departure from pre-social media event sharing. As journalist live-tweeting is a concept still being understood in both industry and scholarly research, this phenomenon as it relates to journalist professional duties bears study. A three-year content analysis of journalist live- tweeting from the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing’s (NASCAR) premiere racing event, the Daytona 500, via a mixed method approach, was used to determine journalist tweeting behaviors during the race and denote trends or shifts over the three years. Results indicated that there were significantly different tweet tendencies between bloggers and institutional journalists.
