Sport et médias
Alors que les médias sont moins diabolisés qu'autrefois et que le sport devient un phénomène social majeur, la relation du sport avec les médias s'est transformée. Dans le même temps, les attentes et les attitudes des publics - y compris les plus " cultivés " - se sont modifiés tant à l'égard des spectacles sportifs et derrière eux des pratiques, que vis-à-vis de leurs retransmissions et de leurs commentaires ou analyses dans les médias traditionnels et Internet.
