The Daily Mail
Irwin Kishner was quoted in The Daily Mail, discussing the potential economic benefits of legalized sports betting. Irwin posited that the legalization of sports betting will provide new revenue streams and increased opportunities in the sports entertainment industry. Kishner said, “There are a multitude of winners here. It's hard to see who is going to be the biggest winner, but I can give you a list: The leagues, because of fan engagement and increased revenue; the players are arguably going to be winners because the teams are going to have more value and should get more revenue; and the media companies because there will be more interest in the sports.”
