Sports Briefing | Fantasy Sports: FanDuel Makes Changes

FanDuel announced Wednesday that it was permanently barring its employees from playing daily fantasy games on any site and was prohibiting employees of other companies from playing on its site.

FanDuel also said that it had asked Michael B. Mukasey, a former United States attorney general, to “review the facts and evaluate our internal controls, standards and practices.”

The announcements came one day after Eric T. Schneiderman, New York’s attorney general, began an inquiry into the prospect that employees of daily fantasy football sites had won lucrative payouts based on inside information.
