Fox Sports to Unveil New National Cable Nets during Upfront Presentation
http://www.multichannel.com/content...cable-nets-during-upfront-presentation/141627
Come early March, “the worst-kept secret” in sports media evidently won’t be under wraps any longer.
That’s how News Corp. COO Chase Carey described the national sports cable service, dubbed Fox Sports 1, during the media giant’s second-quarter earnings call, which someday could become a rival to ESPN.
This will cause some programming disputes, if Fox is really wanting to get 90 cents to a $1 for subs to Speed when it becomes FS1 and Speed is currently only getting 22cents a sub. That's a big jump.
