Don't the broadcast entities (ESPN, Fox, etc) have the rights? Does this say that fans or credentialed journalists can film games and get paid for video? Or am I misreading?
 
We are a sports news network. More specifically a social news sports network of mobile phone video journalists. We don't have to pay any rights fees. This falls under First Amendment, Freedom of the Press, when there is news reporting, commentary and criticism. And we do not need media credentials. So we are not restricted as other media companies who accept media credentials and the restrictions those can come with.

Nothing says professional like video of the guy pitching a journalism product wearing sports jerseys and a backwards ball cap. Oy vey.

The original post and link is gone. Did you guys shame him into leaving? LOL

I went to the Fan Media Network website and saw a page full of videos. It's fans. Outside stadiums mostly, giving their opinions on games, teams, etc. Absolutely awful. Cannot believe this stuff exists.

I think somebody forgot to tell these frat bros from the Class of 2014 that there's a thing called YouTube.
I think my favorite part is where they claim they have for-academic-credit internship deals with all Power 5 schools. I seriously doubt 65 research universities agreed to give academic credit for working for a start-up outfit in which there is no track record. Supervision?
