summary
The book presents research on TV audience and its perception of para-athletes, especially Paralympians, in Czech Television programmes. It seeks answers to the following questions: How are para-athletes regarded by the audience? Does the audience admire or pity them? How do viewers perceive the presentation of the Paralympic sports? Are there differences between the presentation of athletes with and without disabilities? Is the presentation of para-athletes’ life stories in TV reports important? Does parasport make sense at all?
