JAY ONRAIT & DAN O'TOOLE TABBED AS PRIMARY "FOX SPORTS LIVE" HIGHLIGHT TEAM

Popular Canadian Duo Renowned for Fun, Irreverent Style on TSN

New York - Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole, who since 2005 have formed a popular, smart and irreverent anchor team for TSN's SportsCentre, Canada's most-watched sports news program, join FOX Sports as the primary highlight team for FOX SPORTS LIVE, FOX Sports 1's flagship news, opinion and highlights program airing nightly at 11:00 PM ET. The announcement was made today by FOX Sports' Co-President and COO Eric Shanks and Executive Vice President, Studio Production, Scott Ackerson. Onrait and O'Toole, along with Producer Tim, are the first FOX SPORTS LIVE personalities to be announced. The show premieres in conjunction with the network's launch on Saturday, Aug.17.

"Nowhere in America today are there sports anchors with the style and rapport that Jay and Dan have," said Shanks. "We respect their work and the tremendous relationship they've established over the years with Canadian sports fans. We're excited to have had a chance to get to know them, and that they'll have a major role in the launch of FOX Sports 1."

"It's obvious that Jay and Dan are a great tandem and really enjoy themselves when they're on-air," added Ackerson. "FOX SPORTS LIVE is going to deviate from existing sports news formulas, and we expect Jay, Dan and Tim to use their unique brand of humor to make the show fun for fans to watch."

Onrait and O'Toole have been co-hosts of the 1:00 AM ET weekday edition of SportsCentre, which repeats hourly until 1:00 PM ET, entertaining viewers with a brand of humor all their own while delivering a summary of the day's sports news and events.

"We are thrilled to join FOX Sports 1 and can't wait to start working with the rest of the team on FOX SPORTS LIVE," said Onrait. "We like sports and we like to laugh, so that's pretty much the show. Dan and I are also looking forward to getting free tickets to a taping of American Idol. That sealed it for us."

"We are extremely excited to be joining FOX Sports 1," added O'Toole. "This is an enormous opportunity for us and we are so honored to have been asked to take part in this bold new venture by FOX. Jay and I can't wait to introduce ourselves to Americans across the country and look forward to being invited into their homes. We will bring the maple syrup."
