New York Times: A startup that lets users bet free on real-time sports has secured a new round of financing — and gained some high-level backers. WinView, which lets users compete in games that run at the same time as sports games, said it had raised $3.4 million. It also said that it had named the two investors who led the round, Tom Rogers and Hank Ratner, as its co-chairmen. Rogers is the chairman of TiVo and the former head of NBC’s cable division; Ratner is the vice chairman of Cablevision and the former chief of the Madison Square Garden.
