Abstract

Gymnastics is one of the most popular sports at the Summer Olympics in both the United States and China. This study content analyzes more than 23 hours of Olympic gymnastics at the 2016 Rio Games on NBC and CCTV, examining potential framing differences pertaining to nationality and biological sex. Findings reveal that, in terms of name mentions, NBC favored female and domestic gymnasts, yet CCTV devoted more mentions to male and nondomestic gymnasts. Regarding word-by-word descriptors, multiple significant differences strongly suggest that the two networks depict gymnasts in substantially different manners. Discussions and research directions are also offered.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
