Overview

Sportscasting in the Digital Age: More than the Game is a much-needed textbook that not only dives deep into the "how to" of sports play-by-play, but also gives students a broader understanding of the sports media industry and how to find their place in an ultra-competitive business. It covers a range of topics, including:

  • Preparing for game day
  • Roles of the sportscaster
  • Unique aspects of calling specific sports
  • Calling the game for both radio and television
  • Conducting interviews
  • Sports network operations and working with advertisers
  • How to be "the face" of the team

Featuring breakout sections with expert insight from leaders in the field--including Cubs announcer Pat Hughes and ESPN/ABC's Dusty Dvoracek--and profiles of great interviewers such as the late Jack Buck and ESPN host and reporter Marty Smith, Sportscasting in the Digital Age is full of practical guidance and behind-the-scenes details that will prepare the next generation of sportscasters for success.
