i know it's true but why is it? i thought it was false

explain : d

The correct answer is True

Explanation:

Sexism occurs when there is discrimination based on sex, especially discrimination against women. In the case of television coverage of sports, there is sexism because it is common the coverage includes mainly male athletes, while female athletes and their goals are rarely covered. Additionally, it is common television coverage highlights the goals of women in sports only in sports that are considered to be "female" such as volleyball, roller skating, etc. rather than in sports considered to be for men such as boxing.

Besides this, during interviews it has been found the question asks to male and female athletes are different because in the case of female athletes reporters tend to ask about issues not related to the sport such as beauty, clothes, their role as mothers, etc. Thus, it is true the difference in television coverage of male and female sports is an example of sexism.
