Dream Team Ii, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

They called it Dream Team II. What was the point? Was it the Dream Team, the Cream Team or the Scream Team? Was this an exercise in the promotion of international relations through basketball, or another instance of Ugly Americanism in the late Imperial Age?

Bad Behavior, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

When you go off on vacation you feel as if the world stops and nothing of great significance takes place. When you return you quickly reacquaint yourself with the realities, realize that many things did happen of questionable significance, and very quickly you are back into the flow and the cool mountains of New Mexico take on a dreamlike quality.

Race And Athlete's, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

A few weeks ago Addis and The Sporting News sponsored a symposium in New York City on the issue of job opportunity for minorities in management level positions in sport. One of the participants in the discussion was Bill Rhoden, columnist for The New York Times and The Sporting News. That symposium and several of Bill Rhoden's columns over the past few weeks have reminded me of a number of issues which have been raised in the past few years, but have not been adequately addressed in most professional and intercollegiate sports establishments.

Fishing Is Not For Me, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Having been born and raised in Minnesota and now having lived nearly thirty years in Florida, I have spent most of my life on this planet in two of the fishingest states in the Union. Florida has almost as many bass fishermen as it does ways of taking money from tourists. Minnesota is called the Land of 10,000 Lakes, although in reality there are over 100,000 lakes in my home state.

Sport And Society 3-4-98, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

This week I want to talk about the man who taught me a love of sport, and especially a love of baseball, and who taught me much about life.

Jackie Robinson, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It has been the year to remember the achievements of Jackie Robinson both in and outside of baseball. Robinson's breaking of the color line had a social significance which transcended the game of baseball. At the season opener at Shea Stadium the President of the United States recognized Jackie Robinson, and the Acting Commissioner of Baseball retired Jackie's number for all of major league baseball. Radio and TV programs have examined the events of 1947, social commentators have recalled Robinson's contributions to American life, and baseball historians have paid their tributes to this remarkable man.

Four Months In Russia:What I Missed In Sportsworld, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

After being away from this weekly exercise for over four months I thought I might begin by reviewing some of the most notable stories I missed, such as the atrocity committed by Wayne Huizinga in the wake of his purchase of a World Series winner and his failure to extort a new stadium from the people of Broward or Dade counties.

A Content Analysis Of Televised Health News Coverage Within The Huntington, West Virginia Designated Market Area, Leigh Suzanne Hall

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Local media should carefully consider whether or not their health information coverage provides current and useful information to people living within their viewing area. Media play an important role in providing Americans with pertinent health information. As Greenberg and Wartenber (1990) suggest, “American people receive two-thirds more cancer prevention information from television than from their physicians.” Therefore, local television media should make a conscious effort to educate themselves about which health diseases and problems most affect people within their viewing area. For example, people living in Appalachia experience health conditions that are not consistent with those experienced in every region …
