Media Guide: Reporting on disabled people in sport
Activity Alliance's Media Guide aims to improve media coverage of disability sport at all levels by providing better practice guidance to journalists, content writers, and sports providers.
In August 2016, Activity Alliance released a new media research report about the public's desire to see more disability sport in the media. Among the key findings, the report concluded that journalists and sports providers need more support and guidance on appropriate reporting. So, we created the Media Guide: Reporting on disabled people in sport.
The guide provides better practice guidance on six key areas - tailoring content, story type, style and placement, language, media formats, and ambassadors.
