Diamond Sports Group and Cox Communications have reached a new multi-year agreement to renew their distribution agreement for the continued carriage of Diamond’s regional sports networks. This means that Cox Contour TV Preferred and Ultimate customers will still have access to live MLB, NBA, and NHL games as well as team-related content on Diamond’s RSN channels. In addition, customers will be able to stream Diamond’s RSN content by authenticating with their Cox subscription credentials on the Bally Sports app.
David Preschlack, CEO of Diamond, expressed his satisfaction with the agreement, calling it a significant step forward for the company’s future. He emphasized the importance of the partnership with Cox in providing high-quality local sports broadcasts to dedicated fans. Suzanne Fenwick, Senior Vice President of content acquisition at Cox Communications, also shared her excitement over extending the partnership with Diamond and looks forward to continuing to deliver regional sports content to subscribers.
This renewal with Cox comes after Diamond announced a multi-year renewal of its distribution agreement with Charter Communications, Inc. These agreements ensure that Diamond’s RSN channels remain available to viewers and fans can continue enjoying their favorite local sports content.
