ESPNEWS HD TV Plan
Great news! According to the Sports Business Journal, ESPNEWS has finalized the graphics for its new High-Definition TV channel, scheduled for launch on March 30. The high-def channel will feature a scrolling scoreboard on the left side of the screen, similar to the graphics display now used by Fox Business Network HD, which displays stock updates on the right hand side of the screen. At the top of the ESPNews HD screen will be tabs of league news and other topics, while the bottom will feature breaking news and advertising. The network is planning to display up to three scores updates at one time, compared to just one now seen on ESPNews. DIRECTV has announced that they will carry ESPNews when it launches.
