Being gay in sports isn’t just for retirement anymore. In the past year, out athletes are playing on the field under the global glare of mainstream sports coverage, leaving the locker room and heading home to their same-sex partners – all openly. In this plenary, hear from some of the biggest names in sports, and the people who cover them, about how media coverage and league culture have to adapt to the new reality of the gay professional athlete.
