Sport media has increased its efficiency by providing people with news at a faster rate and making it easily accessible through popular <strong>social media<\/strong> platforms. Newspapers and even many magazines were once popular but are now out of style due to the advancement of technology seen through social media. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media has become the <strong>NUMBER 1<\/strong> way to spread messages fast and assist organizations in building positive brand equity. Sport fans can go online or check a sport news page on Instagram to get more updates on popular topics. &nbsp;As a graduate student that received my bachelor\u2019s degree in <strong>marketing<\/strong> and am currently pursuing my master\u2019s degree in <strong>sport management<\/strong>, I know how vital communication is in promoting someone\u2019s brand. Forms of sport media like interviews, podcasts, trendy social media posts, and blogs can be used by athletes, sport organizations, and fans to boost their brand image and\/or connect with other sport fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many components from this class that will be valuable in my own aspirational sport marketing career. Facets like <strong>\u201cBroadcast Media\u201d<\/strong> which is on the decline, <strong>\u201cAthlete Activism\u201d<\/strong> which has become more popular, and the <strong>\u201cStrategic Communication Process\u201d<\/strong> which shows how social media has changed sport media, are all helpful in creating solutions on how to find the most beneficial ways to market to a specific audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Although <strong>WordPress<\/strong> was not easy to navigate, it helped me become more familiar with how to create a <strong>blog\/website<\/strong> and think of innovative ideas when making my weekly submissions. It also showed me how accessible the resources are to start my own personal blog if I ever decide to. The <strong>\u201cSport Media Consumption\u201d<\/strong> assignment gave me a greater understanding on how social media really has changed the game since that is the main way I receive news about sports. I enjoyed this class and look forward to utilizing the things that I have learned to make a difference in the sport marketing world!<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/jairawiley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35594\/2024\/04\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"269\" height=\"269\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/jairawiley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35594\/2024\/04\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/jairawiley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35594\/2024\/04\/image.png 269w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/jairawiley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35594\/2024\/04\/image-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/jairawiley\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35594\/2024\/04\/image-144x144.png 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 269px) 100vw, 269px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have gained so much insight in this Sport and Strategic Communication class pertaining to the growth of sport media throughout the years as well as the various forms that are used to reach different audiences.
