The sampling method was continued in a purposeful manner until theoretical saturation. The validity of this research was checked and confirmed by the interviewees and then expert professors. Reliability was also obtained by using the process audit study method, the results were 89.9%. For data analysis, continuous comparison method was used during three stages of open, central and selective coding with MaxQDA software. Data analysis showed that 28 conceptual codes, six main categories and two core codes are among the most important consequences of sports media privatization.
