This new edition includes expanded coverage of important and emerging topics within sport communication including cross-cultural communication, rhetoric in sport, storytelling, the business of sports broadcasting, athlete activism, and communication within sports teams. Taking stock of current research, new ideas, and key issues, this book is an essential reference for any advanced student, researcher, or practitioner with an interest in sport communication, sport business, sport management, sport marketing, communication theory, journalism, or media studies.
