UTV Media buys Sport magazine
talkSPORT owner UTV Media has completed the acquisition of free weekly magazine Sport.
The magazine was suspended in April after French parent company Sport Media & Strategie went into administration (see Sport magazine suspends publication).
It is understood that Sport will be back on London’s streets on 12 June, with 19 of its 22 UK staff staying on and moving into UTV’s UK offices.
UTV will be attempting to integrate the Sport sales team with its TalkSport commercial unit within a week, to be headed by TalkSport sales director Adam Bullock.
