国际体育记者日第几个？
1896年，在国际奥委会的主持下，在希腊首都雅典召开了第一次现代奥林匹克研讨会。会议通过了一份内容涉及奥运会的各种问题的声明，其中一项内容是： 鉴于运动员为人类的卓越和运动成绩做出贡献。所有报道这些运动的新闻界同仁，都应该获得荣耀和奖励。 这份声明没有具体提到关于设立一个专门纪念体育记者的日子，但它确实为这个概念奠定了重要的基础。
20世纪下半叶以来，随着互联网等新媒体的出现，国际体育新闻行业发生了很大的改变。与此同时，媒体对于奥运会和体育的影响力和作用也越来越大，需要更多的关注和讨论。从2000年开始，每年的7月23日被定为“国际体育记者日”或简称ISU。

It is a vehicle of unity. As such， it requires everyone’s involvement and support to flourish. This includes those people whose profession is to stand behind the lens or to shape words on paper， or to work at computer terminals——the media professionals. They too have their part to play in fostering harmony among peoples and in giving visibility and credibility to the Olympic Ideal.”
He goes on to emphasize that “it takes two to communicate”——there needs to be interaction between athletes and media to make the process successful， with both sides learning from one another. He stresses the need for mutual understanding and respect as essential elements in any healthy relationship， pointing out that， “If there are no longer any boundaries on what can and should be said about famous athletes， then why do we still find it necessary to talk to them about fair play， about good behavior， about cheating and drug use？ If we cannot teach our children these values， if we cannot impress upon them that winning at any cost is not worth winning， what hope do we
