The International Association of Sports Newspapers (IASN) has set up a special Master Class to help news executives navigate complicated "media rights" issues and avoid legal red tape when providing coverage of the 2010 football World Cup and other events.
Covering major sport events has never been more complex. With more "media rights" being sold every day and for every event, the straightforward businesses of news-gathering, providing news services and running commercial programmes alongside news coverage can be fraught with difficulties.
The IASN Master Class, to be held on 5 February next at the state-of-the-art Olympic and Sport Museum in Barcelona, Spain, will provide news executives with the information they need in this key and compelling area.
