About Fox Sports

Fox Sports is a division of the Fox Broadcasting Company. Fox Sports Net operates as a regional sports network with broadcasting agreements that follow league market distribution rules. In subsequent years, it has televised the National Hockey League (1994–1999), Major League Baseball (1996–present), NASCAR (2001–present), and the Bowl Championship Series (2007–2010). It was formed in 1994 with Fox's acquisition of broadcast rights to National Football League games. For example, cable and satellite subscribers in Nevada receive Los Angeles Lakers games on Fox Sports West, while viewers in Utah see Utah Jazz games on Fox Sports Utah. The regionalized coverage frequently restricts broadcasts of live sporting events outside a team's home market.
