So the article seems to imply that the fall in revenue may be a result of the broader movement of consumers from cable to streaming services (unplugging), but you seem to think it's political. What's that based in?


Every one of the currently available streaming services has ESPN and ESPN2 in the base lineups. Anyone that has any paid service has access to ESPN.

The amount of people going with just OTA and "free sites/scrapers" is fairly low.

I've never looked (no longer as much a sports fan) but are you talking services like Apple TV and Hulu (don't have). Because I've never seen ESPN on Amazon Prime or Netflix (which I do have)? I'm relatively behind on media tech for someone my age, so honest questions. I still have a landline.

False. I pay for only Internet and do not have access to any ESPN content unless it is only streamed on watchespn.
