Does ESPN really have that much wider an audience than Fox Sports? Certainly ESPN is the stronger brand, but in terms of cable carriage, aren’t they pretty much the same?
Great writeup! Agree, this all could have been better for everyone and the league should seek to restore wider coverage, but corporate deals are incredibly complex!
It's probably roughly equivalent in terms of reach but the actual audience for games on ESPN is about double that of FS1.
