Great news for sports fans! 🎉 The iconic Sports Illustrated magazine isn't going anywhere. After months of uncertainty, the legendary publication has secured a fresh 10-year publishing deal that promises to keep those glossy pages turning. 📖✨
Back in January, things looked shaky when layoffs hit, and rumors swirled that the print edition might be benched permanently. 😬 The magazine was caught in a payment dispute between its intellectual property owner, Authentic Brands Group (ABG), and its then-publisher, Arena Group.
But on Monday, the game changed. ABG announced that it has partnered with Minute Media for a new decade-long deal. 📝 That means Sports Illustrated will not only continue to publish but also keep delivering its print edition to your doorstep! 🏠📰
For readers who've grown up flipping through its pages, this is like a last-minute buzzer-beater! 🏀⏱️ The new partnership is expected to bring fresh energy to the magazine, ensuring it stays a staple in the sports world for years to come.
So, get ready to keep diving into in-depth sports stories, amazing photography, and all the athletic action you love. 🏆📷 The future looks bright for Sports Illustrated—and we're here for it! 🙌
