Media in Sports

I personally cannot stand watching games on television. If one were to attend a sporting event they would not have the luxury of all that, but what they would have is the experience of being there. Kiger said, “it’s not like the old days,” the commentators would tell stories in between pitches or during rain delays. When we watch sports on television the images and messages we hear are designed to heighten the content. Mind you, most facilities now do have screens where the fans can see replays and so forth. The commentators are constantly advertising things. By staying in and watching the game on television the viewer can see different camera angles, close-ups, slow motion shots, play by play description and so on. Another possibility may be installing in the seats a place to insert headphones to listen to commentary (like in a plane). Being at a sporting event, we able to be part of a group (spectators), being able to smell the grass, smell of the ice. There is an excessive amount of media coverage that is going on in the sports industry. opened up new opportunities for spectators. With all the commercials and ads here and there I lose interest in the game. Enjoying the taste of a hotdog and a cold beer.
