Any student interested in a career related to sport media has to know certain essentials -- how to interview, how to effectively create and distribute content, and how to deal with communication problems that will invariably arise. All of these subjects and more are extensively addressed in this new and completely revised edition. The emphasis of these topics is not so much related to a theoretical understanding of sport media, but rather a practical one. The book is written with the idea that sport media communication does not exist as only something to be discussed in the abstract. Rather, there are fundamental skills, approaches, and procedures that relate directly to the success of communication. While this third edition rightly goes into emerging areas of the field and examines sport media relations from a global perspective, it also retains the focus of the first two editions, specifically on the basics and principles of sport media that remain its foundations.

How Robinson, MacPhail, Reiser and Rickey Changed Baseball
Before the rise of the Brooklyn Dodgers in the 1940s, baseball was a game of white men, cloth caps and concrete walls. Four men helped to change the sport as America knew it: Branch Rickey, Larry MacPhail, Jackie Robinson and Pete Reiser. These men were essential to the evolution of baseball, especially in their home of Brooklyn's Ebbets Field. It was there that the first major league game was televised, where the batting helmet was developed, where the first walls were padded and the first outfield warning tracks laid down and--with the arrival of Jackie Robinson, it is where the color line was broken. This richly researched history which includes chapters such as "1940: MacPhail Starts a Dodger Dynasty," "1942: FDR Says the Show Must Go On" and "The War Years," presents an exploration of how a crucial decade of Dodger accomplishments transformed American baseball.

Known as much for the emotional outbursts and violence of its fans as for its own stars, soccer (or football, as it is known outside the United States) is a global game. Its international controlling body, FIFA, boasts more members than the United Nations. Bill Murray traces the growth of what during pre-industrial times was called "the simplest game" through its codification in the nineteenth century to the 1994 World Cup, held for the first time in the United States. Murray weaves the sport's growth into the culture and politics of the countries where it has been taken up, analyzing its reputation as a game that has seen more riots and on-field brawls than all other types of football combined. He vividly illustrates how soccer has become the world's most popular sport, one that has resisted the interference of politicians, dictators, and profiteers and - more recently - the demands of television, through which it has spread to virtually every corner of the globe. The World's Game will be entertaining and enlightening to anyone from the most avid, knowledgeable fan to those who merely hope to learn a little about the sport.
