SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
Here is the latest trio of Columbia University Sports Podcast (the CUSP Show) that we have had in the past few months. With NBA in full bloom, Super Bowl week here, and digital disruption always in the mix, we selected three that play to that group. These were again compiled by colleague Jessie Leeds Grant… …
How do you try and make a big splash around the biggest TV event of the year with a little project and a little budget. Try and go local and get some buzz on the idea… Case in point. “We Are Triathletes,” the top-grossing documentary about triathlon is set to be released on DVD and …
“We have to move at the speed of culture.” There were lots of buzzwords, phrases and clichés thrown around the miles of floor and exhibition space during CES in Las Vegas last week, but that one line from Activision Blizzard’s Daniel Cherry during the CES SportsZone track was as good a summary, or a …

The following was done by colleague Scott Huntington The Super Bowl is a can’t-miss event every year. The game is just one part of the overall festivities. The commercials are also a major draw, with last year’s Super Bowl 52 costing advertisers about $5 million for a 30-second commercial. The lofty price makes sense, considering …
We are two weeks into the NFL season now, and thought it would be a good time to revisit the social engagement of some of the most featured faces in and around the league; not the players or even the owners, the coaches. The amount of time they are seen and talked about during a …
