Vice + ESPN Team Up

Vice and ESPN announced an interesting partnership this week, in which the two companies will team up to produce sports shows and swap content. According to sources, the two companies will be collaborating on short-form series together, and are currently developing ideas around "dominant athletes, fascinating characters and championship events that reside outside the mainstream". Show's like ESPN's "30 for 30" will also re-air on the Viceland TV channel, and relevant Vice shows like "Vice World of Sports" will air on ESPN's linear and digital channels.
