## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need rights-and-carriage-specific sports media news — broadcasting contracts, streaming platform acquisitions, TV deals, and carriage negotiations — rather than general sports business or game results. It is narrower and more focused than a general sports news feed, specifically aggregating from Awful Announcing and Front Office Sports, two sources known for media-rights coverage. Prefer it over broader news endpoints when the user's question is about who holds broadcast rights, which platform is streaming a league, or how distribution deals are evolving.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if query terms don't match available content
- Source filter enum restricted to 'awfulannouncin' or 'frontofficespo' — invalid values rejected
- Freshness window format errors (e.g. '1week' instead of '7d') may return defaults or errors
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance insufficient
- Rate limiting or upstream source outages may return empty or partial results

## How this service works

Sports broadcasting rights, streaming deals and commentary. Media-rights researchers and streaming-strategy teams; distinct from sportsbiz in that it is rights-and-carriage specific

## Output

A list of news articles and items covering sports broadcasting rights, streaming deals, and media carriage, drawn from Awful Announcing and/or Front Office Sports. Each item typically includes a headline, summary, source, and timestamp. Results can be filtered by source, limited in count, and scoped to a freshness window.
