Abstract
A system and method for assigning channels includes a program guide module having program guide data associated with program channels and a content processing system receiving program feeds for the program channels and receiving data feeds. The content processing system compares event data from the data feed and identifies a first program channel by comparing the program guide data and the event data and associating the program channel with event data.
