Episode 70: The Twitterfication of Sports

On today's pod, Chad and John discuss the ways social media have changed sports, from the way fans enjoy sports content, to the way the media covers sports, to the way athletes themselves interact on Twitter and other social media accounts. We answer questions like, "Is Social Media responsible for declining TV ratings?" "Does journalism still matter if athletes can talk directly to fans?" and "Why do athletes respond to Twitter trolls?" Before this conversation, Chad gives a spoiler-free review of Dune!
