IMG inks deal with Fox Sports


June 23, 2008 IMG Sports Media will take over international distribution of Fox Sports International programming, the companies said. Fox Sports International holds international rights to a number of sports, including college football's Bowl Championship Series, Cotton Bowl and football and basketball games from the Big Ten and the Pac 10 as well as action sports from Fuel TV and domestic Fox Soccer Channel programming. "It's increasingly difficult to really maximize the foreign revenue opportunity if you don't have meaningful scale," said David Sternberg, executive vp and COO of emerging networks at Fox Cable Networks.
