Episode Notes

In episode #92 of 🎙️The Business Case For Women’s Sports, presented by Ally, meet Howard Megdal, the Founder and Editor of The IX Newsletter and The Next Women's Basketball Newsroom.

Throughout the course of his career in journalism, Howard has worked to equalize coverage between both men and women’s sports - most notably, by creating the The IX Newsletter, which is a daily newsletter that offers a “curated guide” to six different women's sports.

In addition to creating The IX, Howard also recognized there was an opportunity for “always-on” women’s basketball coverage, so Howard also created “The Next” which is a 24/7/365 newsroom that puts out coverage on all things women's basketball. 

In this episode, hear Howard talk about what it’s been like dedicating his career to covering women’s sports, and why non-legacy media outlets like The IX and The Next have been essential to growing women’s sports coverage.🏆
