Abstract
- The author reflects on the impact of television on sports. He asserts that television brought life into some sports such as professional football but had negatively affected minor league baseball and boxing in terms of decreasing attendance and overexposure, respectively. He also cites his experience of covering a boxing fight between heavyweights Archie Moore and Willie Bean for the "Berkeley Gazette" on April 10, 1956.
