Language has the
capacity to influence and shift power relationships within the world of sports.
When you recognize the persuasion
infused within sports texts, you become a better reader of other texts and your
world. This blog will contain many entries in which discourse analysis invites us to study the many ways that versions of the
world, society, events, and identities are produced through sports language. Through
this blog and the discourse analysis of media sports texts, we can
step back, interrogate embedded messages, and rethink the ways that we can bind the
power of sport to the healthy social, emotional, and civic development of U.S.
citizens.
Welcome. Keep coming back to this blog and seeing the most recent sports media texts and their analysis. You'll be surprised what you might see!
