"NAMG (North American Membership Group) CEO James Heckman today announced the acquisition of Scout.com from Fox Networks Group. Following the acquisition, both companies will merge to create a new digital media network focused primarily on male enthusiasts, which will operate as Scout Media, Inc."

"Initially founded by Heckman in 2001 and purchased by Fox in 2005, Scout Media (Scout.com) operates over 300 sports web properties. NAMG, owned by Pilot Group, consists mostly of male targeted enthusiast media and commerce properties - such as North American Hunter, North American Fisherman, and Golf Partners - as well as partnerships with Major League Baseball and The History Channel."

"Heckman was hired October 1, 2013, and has already brought on a team of experienced executives and engineers from the likes of Google, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, Fox, NFL and Rivals.com – all with previous operational ties to Heckman and Pilot Group's founder Bob Pittman."
