Description
Media Sport Stars examines how masculinity and male identity are constructed and represented through sport imagery and sporting personalities across different media eras. From early radio broadcasting through contemporary specialist television channels, newspaper supplements and digital platforms, this book traces the evolving cultural significance of sport and sportsmen in shaping masculine identity. Through detailed case studies of British and American athletes, the author investigates the emergence of the sporting hero and star figure, analysing how media narratives frame and interpret the personal and professional lives of sports personalities. This scholarly work explores the intricate connections between sports practices, media representation and the production of masculinity, offering critical insights into how sport continues to influence cultural understandings of male identity and social values.
