Netflix didn't crash when it streamed two NFL games on Christmas. Even better for the NFL and Netflix: The streaming-only games got audiences that were only a bit smaller than a TV game. Netflix passed two tests on Wednesday when it streamed live NFL football games for the first time in its history. That's a record for streaming NFL games in the country. (Those initial numbers may swell a bit once the NFL, Netflix, and Nielsen scour for additional viewers.)

▼ + stars: | 2024-12-23 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp has agreed to sell its Australian cable TV unit Foxtel to British-owned sports network DAZN for 3.4 billion Australian dollars ($2.1 billion) including debt, cutting the media empire’s exposure to a business upended by streaming platforms. DAZN is a broadcasting partner for Italy’s Serie A, Spain’s LaLiga, Germany’s Bundesliga and France’s Ligue 1. News Corp owns 61.4% of online real estate platform REA Group and is the parent company of publisher HarperCollins. Given the overseas ownership of DAZN, the transaction will need to be cleared by Australia’s Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB). ASX-listed shares of News Corp climbed 3.5% Monday, outperforming a 1.6% rise in the broader market.

Carnesecca coached St. John’s to the NIT title in 1989, although by then the tournament had long been a poor cousin to the NCAAs. In 1958, he took an assistant’s job at St. John’s, his alma mater, where he had played baseball but not varsity basketball. Essentially, St. John’s was getting ready for a road trip to Pittsburgh in January and Carnesecca was under the weather. After he retired, Carnesecca was succeeded by a parade of coaches at St. John’s, Mullin among them.

But in the past few years, education about crypto assets has been made more available to professionals.

At 58 years old, Tyson will fight Jake Paul, the 27-year-old YouTube-star-turned-boxer who wasn’t even born when Tyson’s career was in its prime. It’s Tyson’s first sanctioned professional match since 2005. Lewis largely controlled the fight, as the champion survived Tyson’s round one onslaught and controlled the pace with strong jabs. The loss accelerated the end of Tyson’s professional career. His final professional bout — until Friday’s against Paul — came against McBride in 2005.
