dc.description.abstract | As a crucial part of their mandate, public service media (PSM) have historically used
sports to construct and nurture cultural citizenship. In a landscape characterised by
dwindling resources and growing competition from pay-TV channels and on-demand
streaming services, concerns about how PSM will enhance cultural citizenship through
new platforms, including social media, are all the greater. In the digital age, delivering
diverse content should remain a foundation of PSM in their countless platforms: public
media should not only concentrate on major sports but also provide exposure to
traditionally underrepresented disciplines and individuals, including sportswomen and
athletes with disabilities. Through content analysis, this research examines the agenda
diversity offered by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) through its sports-
centred Twitter account (@BBCSport). The analysis of 10,821 tweets indicates how the
BBC’s content reinforces, rather than counteracts, the long-standing diversity imbalances
in the analogue age. This case study facilitates an understanding of the nuanced
relationship between PSM, social media, and sports, demonstrating that more content
does not necessarily ensure diversity. The football-driven, male-centred, and able-bodied
agenda displayed by @BBCSport signals that PSM should reframe their social media
strategies to adequately contribute to fostering cultural citizenship. | es |
