Los Angeles - World Championship Sports Network (WCSN), a cable TV network and website that covers over 60 Olympic and lifestyle sports, announced on Monday that it has received a significant investment from private equity firm InterMedia Partners.

Los Angeles-based WCSN covers over 200 live events annually, and has exclusive programming agreements to cover major championship events in sports like track and field, skiing, swimming, gymnastics, cycling, volleyball and karate.

The company has also recently signed deals to distribute its content with ESPN.com, FoxSports.com, AOL Video and Yahoo Sports.

"WCSN controls a powerful set of rights and some of the best-produced sports content featuring the greatest athletes from around the world," said Peter Kern, managing partner at InterMedia Partners.

"Millions of sports enthusiasts have waited long enough for these events to be consistently available on all platforms."
