Series: Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society

This volume charts the debates over the provision of free-to-air telecasts of sport as a right of cultural citizenship, analyzing the complex economic, political, and sociological questions surrounding the increasingly tenuous ability of public broadcasters to compete for the broadcasting rights to the most popular and desirable sports and sporting events. Through comparative case studies, the contributors to this edited volume explore these issues in various locales across the globe.

Reviews for Sport, Public Broadcasting, and Cultural Citizenship: Signal Lost?

For me - a media scientist - this book is an interesting and important contribution to the debate on public service media and what its mission will be in the future...In my view this book provides media sport researchers with important facts and interesting perspectives on sport culture, citizenship and media politics. - Britt-Marie Ringfjord, Linnaeus University, Kalmar, Sweden, published in idrottsforum.org, Nordic Sport Studies Forum.
