US newspaper featuring online sportsbetting?
 August 9, 2009, 5:59 am (2 years ago)US real estate and media entrepreneur, the publisher of the New York Daily News newspaper, Mortimer Zuckerman has advocated that online sportsbetting could be the aid to save customary newspapers in risk of weakening as the consequence of the predilection for television and Internet sources of today’s news readers.
According to the publication Editor & Publisher, in an interview with Forbes.com the skilled businessman and industrialist was quoted as stating that the “…[US] federal government ought to … allow sports betting on newspaper Web sites. That would save every newspaper in America.”
Regarding the practice by British newspapers, Zuckerman referred as “a vital part of their net revenue stream. I know a key newspaper in London that produces $15 million a year from sports betting alone.”
