- During
Super Bowl Week,
Fox Sports 1 attracted 1.7 million viewers who had not yet sampled it, the largest number of new viewers added since the week of 11/25/13.
"During
Super Bowl Week, in addition to almost 45 hours of coverage directly focused on the game,
Fox Sports 1 presented a host of high-profile events including BIG EAST basketball,
Golden Boy boxing, USNWT soccer, UFC prelims, Supercross, the
NASCAR Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and more," said Bill Wanger, Executive
Vice President, Programming, Research and Content Strategy. "We worked very closely with our partners to create a robust
Super Bowl Week schedule that would resonate with and attract new viewers to the channel, and clearly we accomplished that goal."
