| Summary |
A report on legalized sports gambling, which has become more widespread since the May 2018 Supreme Court decision, which overturned a federal law and ruled that it was up to the states to decide whether or not to legalize sports betting. Supporters cite new possibilities for fan engagement, increased revenues for sports leagues, and betting during games; critics worry about an increased opportunity for gamblers to corrupt unpaid college athletes. Includes interviews with: Ryan Rodenberg, law professor, Florida State University, who specializes in sports gambling; Mike Hamrick, athletic director, Marshall University, West Virginia; Joe Asher, U.S. CEO, William Hill, a British-based company that runs the biggest sports gambling operation in Nevada; and Adam Silver, NBA Commissioner, proponent of legalized gambling |
