From television to cable to DVDs to Netflix, pay-per-view, video games and beyond, today's ever evolving media shapes and reshapes the entertainment and sports industries. In this course, students will learn how today's media has impacted college and professional sports leagues, conferences and merchandise. The course will explore issues like why certain feature films are more profitable than others and the growing impact of documentary films and independent films on the film industry. The course will examine how the media's role as information provider, persuader, and the social commentator make it one of the most powerful forces of change in the worlds of both Sports and Entertainment today.
