Letters from a Creighton Dorm Room

Clash of the Titans

Here is an article in the April 21 edition of the NY Times.

It talks about how traditional media outlets are relying more on video, audio and photography.  But when sports leagues sell their product to advertisers, the media are facing restrictions on what content they can post.  The question becomes who profits off of sporting events?

Anyway, the limiting of online pictures to only 7 disturbs me.  However, I do not know how I feel about the limitations placed on video.  Does anyone have an comments?

  1. We will see more of this because there is so much money involved. And the media want the images/posts to make money too. What becomes more interesting is as media devices become smaller, who’s to say I can’t sit in my seat and blog from an NCAA event? If I had an iPhone, I could.

    I think it will become more difficult in all areas of media, not just sports, to expect people to do things for free so we can make money.
