Media Notes: U.S. Goalkeeper Tim Howard To Double As EPL Player, TV Announcer

U.S. football goalie Tim Howard "will keep doubling as an English Premier League goalkeeper and TV announcer." Howard "will work up to 10 games for NBC Sports Group during the upcoming season" on days his EPL team, Everton, is not playing. He "will either serve as a game commentator in the booth or as an on-site studio analyst for high-profile matches" (AP, 7/29). ... Axel Springer, which publishes the German tabloid newspaper Bild, said that "it has signed a cooperation agreement with the mobile operator E-Plus' brand Base." It said that "Base customers will have the opportunity to obtain BILDplus news and entertainment content, including football news from 'Bundesliga bei Bild', as part of a 'Base all-in' 24-month contract" (TELECOM PAPER, 7/29).
