Abstract

Sports programs represent one of the most consumed entertainment products in the world, however, in 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic put this entire media ecosystem into crisis. This study aims to analyze the professional versatility developed by journalists and audiovisual sports media producers in Ibero-America to continue exercising their work during the confinement imposed by the pandemic. The methodology applied was qualitative, semi-structured interviews were carried out that allowed us to know the different degrees and types of polyvalence that they applied to continue producing content, despite the fact that there were no sports tournaments. As a result, it was obtained that journalists developed and learned technological functions, developed new topics and it was concluded that teleworking was established as a new professional versatility that remains valid beyond the pandemic.
