In this week’s Marchand and Ourand Sports Media Podcast sponsored by WSC Sports: the latest developments in the Pac-12’s media rights negotiations and MLS’s push to get a traditional TV network to carry its games next season.

Hosts Andrew Marchand and John Ourand also spend some time on whether Fox Sports’ production of the World Cup from Qatar is getting better and they parse some of NBC honcho Mark Lazarus’ comments from SBJ’s Media Innovators conference in New York City.

As always, Marchand and Ourand identify who in sports media has had a good week and who has not. Instead of a Call of the Week this week, the hosts answer a reader’s question that was submitted via Twitter.
