Scripps Sports announced a multi‑year media rights agreement with the Nashville Predators, granting Scripps the rights to produce and broadcast all locally televised games, including preseason, regular‑season, and first‑round playoff contests, as well as 30‑minute pre‑ and post‑game shows for each game.

The agreement will be carried on Scripps’ own WNPX‑TV station in Nashville, branded “The Spot – Nashville 28,” and will also be available via a forthcoming direct‑to‑consumer streaming app, expanding the company’s sports portfolio and adding a high‑profile NHL franchise to its growing list of national and local sports rights.

The partnership creates a new recurring revenue source for Scripps and positions the company to leverage its national reach through the ION network and local station footprint, potentially boosting advertising sales and strengthening its competitive stance in the sports broadcasting market.
