Oliver has been part of FOX Sports family for over two decades and has been part of FOX’s coverage of eight Super Bowls since joining the network in 1995.

  • Versatile Fox Sports Broadcaster Kenny Albert Continues to Pair with Biggest Names in Sports
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Erik Arneson, FOX Sports Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 [email protected] VERSATILE FOX SPORTS BROADCASTER KENNY ALBERT CONTINUES TO PAIR WITH BIGGEST NAMES IN SPORTS Boothmates like Namath, Ewing, Palmer, Leonard ‘Enhance Broadcasts … Make My Job a Lot More Fun’ Teams with Former Cowboy and Longtime Broadcast Partner Daryl ‘Moose’ Johnston and Sideline Reporter Laura Okmin for FOX NFL in 2016 With an ever-growing roster of nearly 250 teammates (complete list below) that includes iconic names like Joe Namath, Patrick Ewing, Jim Palmer, Jeremy Roenick and “Sugar Ray” Leonard, versatile FOX Sports play-by-play announcer Kenny Albert -- the only announcer currently doing play-by-play for all four major U.S. sports (NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL) -- certainly knows the importance of preparation and chemistry. “The most important aspects of my job are definitely research and preparation,” said Albert, a second-generation broadcaster whose long-running career behind the sports microphone started in high school, and as an undergraduate at New York University in the late 1980s, he called NYU basketball games. “When the NFL season begins, it's similar to what coaches go through. If I'm not sleeping, eating or spending time with my family, I'm preparing for that Sunday's game. “And when I first work with a particular analyst, researching their career is definitely a big part of it,” Albert added. “With (Daryl Johnston) ‘Moose,’ for example, there are various anecdotes from his years with the Dallas Cowboys that pertain to our games. When I work local Knicks telecasts with Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier on MSG, a percentage of our viewers were avid fans of Clyde during the Knicks’ championship runs in 1970 and 1973, so we weave some of those stories into the broadcasts.” As the 2016 NFL season gets underway, Albert once again teams with longtime broadcast partner Johnston, with whom he has paired for 10 seasons, sideline reporter Laura Okmin and producer Barry Landis.

  • Campaign Proposal a Fox Sports Public Relations Campaign
    FALL 2020 CAMPAIGN PROPOSAL A FOX SPORTS PUBLIC RELATIONS CAMPAIGN Proposed by: GTG Public Relations Gabriella Fournier Grace Gower Chen Tao Letter to the Client Dear Cati and Kristen, GTG Public Relations is proud to present FOX Sports with the #FOXSpeaksSports campaign aiming to attract female sports fans and engage a younger, more diverse fan base to download and use the new FOX Sports app and website. We conducted in-depth primary research on our target audience and through secondary research we were able to set a solid foundation for our campaign. Since it is ideal to maximize the use of FOX Sports talents and minimize costs, we looked deeply into the talent and created detailed tactics based off our meticulous findings. Our campaign is centered around strong and diverse talent such as Shannon Spake, Pam Oliver, Michael Strahan, Charlotte Wilder and Shannon Sharpe. Including a di- verse group of FOX Sports talent will help to bring casual fans over to FOX Sports on social media platforms and the FOX Sports app. The global pandemic has led to an in- crease in internet streaming and app use, especially with sporting events because fans have not been able to play sports or attend games. In our campaign, we touch on an advertisement, video content, blogs, social engagement, sports fashion, merchandise, cooperation, philanthropy and great female athletes to form an engaging and competi- tive campaign. Thank you very much for your time and for considering our proposal. We understand that 2020 is an unprecedented year, but we look forward to working with FOX Sports to create a one-of-a-kind campaign.
