News Digital Media to rep IGN and AskMen

March 29, 2011 12:37

News Digital Media is taking on the repping of IGN and AskMen following the decision by MySpace to wind down most of its Australian operation. Locally, MySpace, IGN and AskMen had previously fallen within the remit of the Fox Interactive sales team.

The announcement:

News Digital Media’s commercial director, Tony Prentice, announced today that the company has entered into a commercial agreement with IGN Entertainment. From April 4, NDM will be the exclusive Australian sales representative of IGN.com and AskMen.com.

IGN.com is the world’s largest videogames and entertainment network and attracts 30 million monthly global unique browsers from males aged 18-34, one million of which are Australian. It features comprehensive, credible and irreverent content focussed on games and movies.

Hi Beau,

Nine times out of ten, the date we post matches the press release. On this occasion I think the release actually came out yesterday.

Cheers,
