Most of the biggest channels have lost between three million and five million subscribers since 2010. The two most expensive channels, which feature marquee sports events—Walt Disney Co.’s ESPN and Time Warner Inc.’s TNT—have been the hardest hit, with subscriber drops of nearly 5%. ESPN this year is expected to receive average monthly fees of $6.04 per subscriber, while TNT will receive $1.44, according to SNL Kagan.

Nielsen says the subscriber declines are a real phenomenon.

Without sports, most people wouldn't even have cable. It's a complete joke how expensive it is today with the internet being as powerful as it is.

You clowns really think it's good for Disney to lose viewers?

when ESPN fails, big time sports will go PPV

Seems like ESPN is included in any TV package. This stat must include all ESPN peripheral services (News, U, Classics, etc.), which, doesn't really affect the brand, imo.

Karma. This is what happens when you try to make the news instead of report the news. I am still waiting on the apology & retraction for the 72 hour straight breaking news reporting in 2012 of the Mickey Loomis "wiretapping" allegations...............We are waiting ESPN...................Hello????
