Are the Times Changing Enough? Print Media Trends Across Four Decades
Are the Times Changing Enough? Print media trends across four decades Abstract Media analysis is an established area of sport sociology which has been documented by researchers systematically since the 1980s. Some trends have explored the differences between male and female athletes in the print media with significant evidence demonstrating that female athletes do not gain proportional representation and that many strategies employed by journalists traditionally seek to trivialise, sexualise and emphasise the female identity as ‘other’ rather than as athlete. This longitudinal study uniquely documents an analysis of a two week period in the British print media across four decades 1984-2014. This study, grounded in liberal feminism, presents both quantitative and qualitative data and the main quantitative results demonstrate that coverage for female athletes has decreased from 13% to 6.2%. Qualitative themes presented include: relationships, appearance, performance and nationality, the latter emerging as a new theme from the 2014 data set. The results demonstrate that there is little change in amount of representation afforded to female athletes but that there are reporting changes with a greater emphasis on performance and less reliance on appearance. The paper concludes with the position that although sports reporting, in general is on the increase, women athletes are being given less but potentially better coverage. Key words Print media, women, longitudinal, sport, performance 1 Introduction Media analysis is an established area of sport sociology which has been documented by researchers systematically since the 1980s. Despite the extent and breadth of the area there have been some methodological trends which include a focus on print media, the analysis of both quantitative and qualitative content and the analysis of the portrayal of female athletes. -

Trump bajo fuego 12 Workers and oppressed peoples of the world unite! workers.org Vol. 60, No. 37 Sept. 13, 2018 $1 Jailers lock down striking prisoners By Ted Kelly Philadelphia Chicago hotel workers strike for health Thousands of prisoners across Pennsylvania have been confined to their cells since Aug. 29. That’s when the state’s Department of Corrections Secretary John Wetzel declared an indefinite lockdown of all facilities under his jurisdiction. The lockdown, which began just days into the National Prison Strike (Aug. 21 to Sept. 9) is the most blatant in a series of repressive tactics that the state has resorted to in response to the strike. It was timed to preempt some major strike actions planned by prisoners. Attacks on right to legal counsel One week into the lockdown, Wetzel appeared alongside Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, who announced a sweeping series of new policies that constitute an unprecedented crackdown on the rights of prisoners. Among the many petty and punitive policies, like banning prisoners from taking photos with their visitors, there are also new mea- sures that will systematically deny prisoners their right to privacy with legal counsel. All correspondence sent to prisoners is now to be trans- ported to a third-party facility in Florida, where it will be opened and photocopied before copies are sent to the re- spective prisons to be delivered to the intended recipients. Since prison officials are at least in theory not allowed to open any mail containing legal correspondence, except in the presence of its recipient, a farcical new method has ‘They work us like dogs when it’s busy been introduced to get around this protection. -

Tennis & School
TENNIS & SCHOOL THE MOURATOGLOU ACADEMY A PLACE OF EXCELLENCE. With more than 320 days of sunshine per year and 12 hectares of cutting-edge sports infrastructure, the Mouratoglou Academy is one of the world’s most renowned destinations for the practice of intensive outdoor tennis all year long. BETWEEN NICE & CANNES 15 MIN FROM NICE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT LOCATED IN SOPHIA ANTIPOLIS We all want our children to be well prepared for the future; we want to provide them with an enhanced educational system to complement that of their parents. This will equip them with all the necessary tools to live their lives to the fullest. Since its inception in 1996, the Mouratoglou Academy has been developing a precursor school system that has proven to be extremely efficient. Tennis is truly a « school of life ». It teaches us humility, hard work, perseverance and self-awareness. To me, it is much more than making grand speeches. In fact, it offers a unique experience which allows each student-athlete to display their true worth. With small class sizes, individualized attention, a practical teaching style to better understand theory, learning and mastering foreign languages, living among fellow student-athletes from 40 different nationalities and dedicated teachers, we can say with certainty that our children will be ready for the future. At the end of the year, when I attend the graduation ceremony and listen to our graduates’ speeches, I find myself completely awestruck by their sense of humour, their maturity, their intellect and their self-confidence. I tell myself that I would have been unable to do the same at their age. -
