"In the edited collection of Sport Media Vectors: Digitization, Expanding Audiences, and the Globalization of Live Sport, leading scholars from five continents explore the socio-cultural and political aspects of sport media vectors. The direction of live sport will continue to evolve as the demand by audiences shifts. Our book covers a complementary range of topics from: esports; livestreaming; traditional linear broadcasting; gender, sexual orientation and masculinities in sport media; global comparisons; media and technological implications of sport; and audience study. Our book plays an important role in the globalization of live sport from the sport media point of view, which has not been widely investigated. However, with the great demand by fans to consume and engage with live sport and the growth of digital platforms supplying fans access and enhancing their consumption experience, it is gaining importance and attention in the field. A common thread with many of the contributors of this book is their focus on the intersection between scholarly work and its convergence and practical relevance with industry practice"--
