How Twitter Revolutionized Sports Media

My research topic is based on how Twitter has transformed the way sports media and communities interact My main focuses are on how Twitter creates a social hub for fans to discuss what is happening in the world of sports and how the social media site has created a new outlet for reporters and media to share up to date news and information. These new ways of interacting with others can be both positive and negative. I plan to discuss how Twitter has pioneered these changes, how it has been adapted and extensively used by both professionals and fans, and the benefits and drawbacks of the site's widespread use in the sports world.
