Publishers Enter Sports Betting Space, Including Barstool Sports
In the past week, Fox Sports and theScore have each rolled out their own sports betting apps. Meanwhile, Barstool Sports has debuted a standalone site, Barstool Bets, that offers free-to-play contests with cash prizes in lieu of actual wagering, and Vox Media has launched a sports betting publication with DraftKings called DraftKings Nation.
