Video Bar Sponsorship

The Video Bar Sponsorship is presented as an branded Thumbnail within the Video Bar on the Homepage or Channel pages. The sponsored Thumbnail appears in the far right position (7th on Home and Franchise Channel, 4th on News Channel). Included within the Thumbnail is space for advertiser's image and a call to action.

Upon clicking on the Thumbnail the guest is taken to a player page. The Advertiser's video content may play for up to two minutes and a 300x250 companion unit may also serve on this page with the video.
