A gender comparison of the BBC's TV coverage of the 1995 World Athletics Championships
Out of 164 minutes of total sports coverage for all sports analyzed, 92 minutes (56%) were devoted to the coverage of the men's events, while 72 minutes (44%) were allocated to the coverage of the corresponding women's events. I just thought this was interesting. I guess I never really took the time to think about how much woman sports were covered, but i mean obviously we wouldn't be treated equal and get equal coverage time. I just thought this was interesting. I guess we have to think of it in a different aspect, that most men love watching their sports games. Yes, there are woman out there that love watching sports too but not as many as men. What are your thoughts on this and do you think law suites or anything like that should be filed because of this?
