BeIN Media Group, the Qatari broadcaster, has hit out angrily at media reports suggesting beIN Sports channels are being blacked out in the Middle East and North Africa (Mena) as a consequence of the Saudi Arabia-led economic blockade of Qatar launched on June 5. 

In an exclusive interview with SportBusiness International, the company also dismissed concerns about its future existence, both in its core market of Mena and other territories in which it operates around the world.
