Since the Supreme Court announced last month that states could decide whether or not to legalize sports gambling, the momentum train has gained speed for VSiN (Vegas Stats and Information Network). The Las Vegas based sports betting content company announced partnerships with 670 The Score in Chicago, 101 ESPN in St. Louis, Cheddar, and TVG, while adding respected radio industry executive Dan Mason as an investor and strategic advisor.
And they’re not slowing down.
Announced earlier today, VSiN has joined forces with the New York Post. The partnership provides VSiN with a daily presence in the Post, and calls for features to be produced on Tuesday’s and Friday’s. VSiN Founder and Chairman Brian Musburger credited COO Bill Adee and VSiN content contributors Jeff Fogle and Amal Shah for their hard work in making the deal happen.
The new content partnership between the Post and VSiN provides more evidence that sports gambling content is becoming mainstream, and news, data and analysis offered to assist sports gambling decisions is increasingly growing in value.
