\"\"DraftKings<\/a> has announced that it has acquired Vegas Sports<\/a> Information Network, a multi-platform broadcast and content company delivering sports betting news, analysis, and data to U.S. sports bettors since 2017. The acquisition will enable DraftKings, which is live in sports betting in 14 states, to further build out its content capabilities and will augment VSiN\u2019s ability to broaden their audience alongside the expansion of legal sports betting<\/a> in the U.S.<\/p>\n

\u201cVSiN creates authentic and credible content that resonates with sports bettors<\/a> at every level, whether they\u2019re experienced or new to sports betting,\u201d said Jason Robins, DraftKings\u2019 co-founder, CEO and Chairman of the Board. \u201cIn addition to its brand equity among sports bettors and engaging talent roster, VSiN also has an established infrastructure that DraftKings can immediately help expand, in the hopes of adding value to consumers who are looking to become more knowledgeable about sports betting.\u201d<\/p>\n

VSiN, which operates out of Las Vegas, develops, produces, and distributes up to 18+ hours of live linear sports betting content each day. In addition to its 24\/7 stream, VSiN\u2019s original content is accessible through multiple video and audio channels including Comcast Xfinity, Sling TV, fuboTV, Rogers\u2019 Sportsnet, MSG Networks, NESN, AT&T Pittsburgh, Marquee Sports Network, a dedicated channel on iHeartRadio and TuneIn, as well as terrestrial radio stations throughout the country, and its growing slate of podcasts and betcasts. VSiN\u2019s current talent roster includes Brent Musburger, legendary sports broadcaster; Michael Lombardi, former NFL executive; Gill Alexander, host of the\u00a0Beating the Book<\/em>\u00a0podcast; and Pauly Howard and Mitch Moss, co-hosts of VSiN\u2019s popular morning show,\u00a0Follow The Money.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe created VSiN as a destination for sports bettors to find the most credible content to help inform their wagering decisions,\u201d said Brian Musburger, CEO of VSiN. \u201cHarnessing the power and network of the DraftKings brand will allow us to reach an even wider audience with our unique content.\u201d<\/p>\n

DraftKings\u2019 vision is for Brian Musburger and his leadership team to continue to manage day-to-day operations while maintaining editorial independence. DraftKings intends to fully integrate VSiN\u2019s current employee base located in Las Vegas, including its on-air talent, into its 2,600 person global workforce. Since opening a Las Vegas office in January 2020, DraftKings has grown its local employee base by 132%. DraftKings also recently announced a multi-year agreement to become a primary sponsor of the Center for Gaming Innovation, housed within the International Gaming Institute at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
