Media
In February 2011 Rugby League Norway announced a deal with TV 2 Sport that will see one game of the Engage Super League screened each week. In addition, a timeslot was allocated to promote the fledgling domestic competition each week. The first Super League game ever screened live in Norway was the clash between St Helens and Wigan Warriors. That game was held on Saturday February 12 20:00 CET at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff as part of Millennium Magic.
In 2012 the Norwegian Grand Final was broadcasted live on the Internett through NRK ( Norsk Riks Kringkasting). This was a huge step towards showing people the greatest game of all in Norway.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
—Joshua Meyrowitz, U.S. educator, media critic. “The Blurring of Public and Private Behaviors,” No Sense of Place: The Impact of Electronic Media on Social Behavior, Oxford University Press (1985)
“The media no longer ask those who know something ... to share that knowledge with the public. Instead they ask those who know nothing to represent the ignorance of the public and, in so doing, to legitimate it.”
—Serge Daney (1944–1992)
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
