Fox Sports, Stars Group to offer sports betting in deal
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — A major U.S. sports network is getting into the sports betting game.
Fox Sports says it is buying just under 5 per cent of the Stars Group for about $236 million, and that both companies will offer real-money sports betting this fall in states where it is legal and the companies are licensed.
They will offer full-blown sports betting under the name FOX Bet in states that have legalized it.
