Television Changes the Rules







The influence of television
on sports cannot be overestimated. The influence is based on the insatiable
appetite of the public for sporting events. This vast market can be
reached at one time only by radio and television, and television is by far the
preferred medium. . The visual impact of television has brought hours of every
known sport, from arm wrestling to yachting, into the living rooms of millions
of viewers.


The influence of television derives from its
visual immediacy, but its power over sports is based on money. The money comes
from comبارك الله فيكal sponsors, who buy broadcast time from the television companies.
The television stations and the networks then must often pay the professional
leagues or other organizations for the right to broadcast the events.


By 1989 more than 400 corporations had
established budgets for sports marketing. Direct corporate sponsorship makes
the company name known to television viewers; General Motors, for example, was
spending 581,000 dollars a day. Another aspect of corporate marketing involves
obtaining the services of well-known athletes to do comبارك الله فيكals.


The power of television to create and sustain
viewing markets has allowed it to influence the playing of the games. In some
cases the rules have been changed to accommodate programming. Changes such as
the 20-second rule and the 3-point basket in basketball have not necessarily
been mandated by television, but they have been adopted to speed up the
game and to make it more appealing to viewers. The tiebreaker that was
introduced to shorten televised tennis matches was soon adopted for regular
tournament play.


The number of time-outs has been increased
during games to allow for comبارك الله فيكals. Everyone who watches professional
football is aware of the two-minute warning near the end of each half. The time
is, of course, used for comبارك الله فيكals. And viewers who once enjoyed football
halftime shows now must usually miss them, while comبارك الله فيكals and scores
from other games are broadcast.


Television has also been responsible for
changes in the scheduling of games. Because of television marketing, baseball
has become largely a night game. Most World Series games, except for those
played on weekends, are broadcast at night. Games that were once played at the
same time are now spaced out to hold viewers.
