This assignment is based on the following 2 clips of college basketball pre-game shows.
Watch these two clips…in this order. They are both intro clips from the respective 2018 NCAA basketball championships:
a) Women’s: https://youtu.be/mCX3-sgGvvs (Watch until 2:10, at least. Note: I could NOT find anything on the final game, so this the ‘hype ‘for a semi-final game, but I’m sure it’s very similar in style and content to the Final game.)
b) Men’s: https://youtu.be/vA-kpJEvay8
ASSIGNMENT: In your Groups, respond to all of the questions below.
1) Analyze these clips of pre-game hype for evidence of difference between the women’s and men’s coverage based on elements discussed in this lecture and listed below:
2) IN YOUR OWN WORDS, discuss how Messner et al. suggested that ‘The Unevenness of Social Change’ (It’s Dude Time) is impacting women sports on Television. (Note: do not include quotes or you will be marked down. I want to ‘hear’ what you have to say based on the article.)
