The explosive popularity of fantasy sports has certainly caught the eye of many political bigwigs. This time, it’s Massachusetts Attorney-General Maura Healey who has initiated a review on the legality of daily fantasy sports site DraftKings.
“The point is this: This is a new industry. It’s something that we’re reviewing, and we’ll learn more about it,” Healey told the State House News Service.
But the attorney-general later explained that it was DraftKings that approached her office and initiated the inquiry.
News site WWLP.com quoted Healey saying the daily fantasy site wanted “to reach out and talk to us about the new industry, so we heard them out, we’re hearing them out on it, and as I said, we’re just looking to learn more.”
