LIFE IN THE LIMELIGHT

Abstract
The media today wields more power in professional and amateur sports than ever. Indeed, the very notion of media has changed drastically in recent years, as players and coaches join fans on social media sites, exchanging the most trivial thoughts and, sometimes, overstepping their bounds with inappropriate comments.
