Women in Sport: RNZ, Sunday Morning

Radio New Zealand (17 November 2013). Sunday Morning "Ideas" with Jeremy Rose: Women and Sport. Broadcast Sunday 17 November 2013. Retrieved 28 January 2014 from http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/sunday/audio/2576646/ideas-for-17-november-2013 and http://www.radionz.co.nz/audio/player/2576646

The blurb from Jeremy's programme on Women and Sport "we explore three of the big issues facing women in sport - media coverage, money and management. We talk with Sarah Leberman about sport's place in society; we ask former Dominion Post sports editor Bryce Johns whether the media are giving fair coverage to women; Steve Jackson from Otago University talks commercialisation and pay parity; and we discuss governance and leadership with ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 chief Therese Walsh".
