[QUOTE="ChiefGritty, post: 2068134, member: 746137"] Yeah Disney has a lot of other stuff in the tent that makes up for the Disney+ bloodbath. They are looking to sell ESPN though. It's bad at Fox, worse at Paramount (CBS) which is now being sold to a plutocrat failson, and worse still at Warner Brothers Discovery (TNT/TBS) which just failed to merge with Paramount. All the regional sports networks are in their death throes. The TV audience just isn't there like it used to be. In terms of schools doing a lot of capital investment, a lot of it is donor funded, and the media revenue isn't going to go to zero, lots of people still love watching sports and are willing to pay to do so. The schools and teams and leagues will muddle through. But the age of endless growth on the backs of people who DON'T watch or care about sports is over. [/QUOTE]
