NBC scores a record haul from Super Bowl ad sales

NBC said that it has sold all the available commercial spots for the February 1st NFL championship, establishing a new revenue record for what is traditionally TV's biggest event of the year. NBC did not disclose how much it expects to generate, although executives said each 30-second spot sold for an average of $4.5 million. That could help NBC generate more than $360 million from the event. More than 70 advertisers will be featured in 2015's upcoming game. NBC is also making history by running a Spanish-language telecast of the NFL championship on its newly rebranded NBC Universo cable channel.
