you're looking at it the wrong way. There are tonnes of reporters that don't make sensationalist titles, and guess who reads them? Not many people. If tomorrow, this news outlet starts being honest, it will fall in rating, and another dishonest one will rise to the top. They do this because there's a demand for it. When was the last time you took your time to find a good reporter and went out of your way to promote or reward them? You start by: 1) having discipline to not fall for click bait; 2) taking your time to actively look for good journalism, not just passively wait for whatever comes; 3) rewarding good journalism with more than just clicks or views. If people do this, we will see less click bait and more content. But people would never see fault in themselves, they rather blame it on the media, who operates on the same law Rafael Nadal has stated - they are rewarded for what they were able to sell / generate.

Its hardly equal pay in the music industry, its about the number of bums on seats. I dont expect everyone to be paid the same, not every entertainment product is of equal entertainment value. I expect Beyonce to be paid more than most men in the industry. This is not the same as going to work for a bank where there are equal job structures to ensure equal work is done driving the same output. Ultimately it can argued that women are paid better in Grand Slam tennis than men on an hourly rate seeing that men often play best of 5 sets & women best of 3. A womens final drives far less TV advertising revenue being a best of 3 sets than the men. So what exactly is equal pay based on?

Absolutely! I don't think that women should be paid less for doing the same work as men, but in the tennis example given, most ladies' matches are shorter than men's matches. Ladies play a maximum of 3 sets in a Grand Slam match, whereas men play a minimum of 3 sets. Also, if you were to carry out a survey on the street and ask 'who is the current Wimbledon (or French, US or Australian) champion, then most responses will be a man's name. Women just don't attract the same size audience. Rafa's example about modelling is a good one. Many women will buy clothes depending on who's modelled them, whereas men don't really care. A high profile female model could earn an organisation far more than a male model, so should be paid more accordingly. Female footballers earn less than men, but if their wages were the same, would as many people pay to watch them? Probably not. I personally think that male footballers are grossly overpaid, but if people pay to watch them play, then the demand is there. If their clubs try to pay them less then they'll move to another club. That's how business works.

He could also say , that it is not up to him to dictate who gets paid more. He works hard, and the tournaments and money he generates through his "brand" are completely dependant upon sponsorship, views, media share of advertising, ratings ticket sales, and his own advertising/management team. If women want to get paid more, it's up to them to try to generate more revenue, and negotiate that revenue for themselves. I do me, you do you. If you want more of a share, help do more to generate the revenue to support that.

@@freshprinceofsolair Some women's sports are watched less often than the men's version and therefore generate less revenue(for example football).

@miguelsh33n6 місяців тому
You really didn't understand what he meant. Hypocrisy would be to act as an ambassador for something that nobody has to change except the market itself, its sales and its profits. If a female or male sport does not generate profits or generates less than the other gender, then it is unfair to charge more or less for being a man or a woman. They have to earn what they generate, no more and no less. That is what he says. If the WNBA was watched on the same level as the NBA, and its merchandising sold the same, then, and only then, should women earn the same as men. In the meantime, they don't. That WOULD be unfair. And that's just what happens with modelling, women earn more because they generate more profit and sell more products. Period. It doesn't take ambassadors or anything like that to artificially maintain a business in a way that has more costs than revenues. It is absurd.
