Fox Sports Adds High-Speed Rail Cam to Coca-Cola 600 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contacts: Erik Arneson, FOX Sports Tuesday, May 22, 2018 [email protected] FOX SPORTS ADDS HIGH-SPEED RAIL CAM TO COCA-COLA 600 Mega Trax 500 Robotic Camera Goes 0-to-60 MPH in Three Seconds; Tops Out Close to 100 MPH CHARLOTTE – Following a successful test earlier this season at Auto Club Speedway, FOX Sports will deploy a Mega Trax 500 robotic “Rail Cam” for NASCAR’s iconic Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday, May 27 (6:00 PM ET, FOX). “When we think about camera coverage of NASCAR, FOX Sports Lab is constantly on the lookout for unique platforms that can give our fans a brand new perspective,” said Michael Davies, FOX Sports SVP Field & Technical Operations. “The Mega Trax ‘Rail Cam’ fits perfectly into our long history of NASCAR coverage innovations, including Gopher Cam, Gyro Cam, and most recently, Visor Cam. We had great luck with the Rail Cam test in Fontana earlier this year, and now wanted to use it in a completely different way than we used there -- instead of pit coverage, we are placing it in a location which could give us some really interesting views of actual race coverage. We hope this will add yet another reason to watch the most compelling race of the Memorial Day weekend.” For a look at footage from the Fontana test: https://www.mega-trax.com/videos/ FOX Sports and Mega Trax will construct about 850 feet of rail behind the inside wall on the backstretch at Charlotte Motor Speedway. With near-silent operation, the FOX Sports Rail Cam accelerates from 0-to-60 mph in about three seconds, topping out at speeds in excess of 90 mph. For more information on the Mega Trax 500, please visit: https://www.mega-trax.com/ FOX Sports Lab is a designed approach to exploring technical partnerships that give viewers a fresh perspective and ad sales teams more targeted sports integrations.

  • Local Information Programming and the Structure of Television Markets
    Local Information Programming and the Structure of Television Markets Federal Communications Commission Media Ownership Study #4 Jack Erb* Office of Strategic Planning and Policy Analysis Federal Communications Commission Email: [email protected] May 20, 2011 Abstract: We analyze the relationship between the ownership structure of television markets and the amount of local news and public affairs programming provided in the market (at both the overall market and individual station levels). We find that commercial television stations that are cross-owned with major newspapers in the same market tend to air more local news programming, but that the station-level increase does not translate into more local news programming at the market level. Television-radio cross-ownership has a moderate (but statistically significant) positive impact on local information programming at the station level, and each additional in-market radio station controlled by the television station owner corresponds to additional local news minutes aired by the television station. However, local news programming at the market level is likely to be lower, as the scale economies enjoyed by the cross-owned stations are outweighed by the crowding out of local news programming on other stations. Multiple ownership (i.e., situations in which a single parent controls two or more stations in the same market) does not appear to impact the amount of local information programming at either the market or station level (though this result appears somewhat dependent upon model specification). But we do find that multiple ownership and broadband subscribership have a positive impact on the relative mix of local vs.

  • Television and Cable Network Programming the Company's Television Operations Primarily Consist of FOX, Mynetworktv and the 27
    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Television and Cable Network Programming The Company’s television operations primarily consist of FOX, MyNetworkTV and the 27 television stations owned by the Company. The television operations derive revenues primarily from the sale of advertising and to a lesser extent retransmission compensation. Adverse changes in general market conditions for advertising may affect revenues. The U.S. television broadcast environment is highly competitive and the primary methods of competition are the development and acquisition of popular programming. Program success is measured by ratings, which are an indication of market acceptance, with the top rated programs commanding the highest advertising prices. FOX is a broadcast network and MyNetworkTV is a programming distribution service, airing original and off-network programming. FOX and MyNetworkTV compete with broadcast networks, such as ABC, CBS, NBC and The CW, independent television stations, cable and DBS program services, as well as other media, including DVDs, Blu-rays, video games, print and the Internet for audiences, programming and, in the case of FOX, advertising revenues. In addition, FOX and MyNetworkTV compete with the other broadcast networks and other programming distribution services to secure affiliations with independently owned television stations in markets across the country. Retransmission consent rules provide a mechanism for the television stations owned by the Company to seek and obtain payment from multi- channel video programming distributors who carry broadcasters’ signals. Retransmission compensation consists of per subscriber-based compensatory fees paid to the Company from cable and satellite distribution systems as well as a portion of the retransmission revenue the affiliates generate for their retransmission of FOX and MyNetworkTV.
