ESPN is planning on dumping Monday Night Football because they overpaid. Just because FOX does something similarly stupid, isn't a good argument

Massive Subscriber and Ratings Losses Could Force ESPN to Dump Monday Night Football

one analyst is noting that it would make good business sense for cable sports network ESPN to simply give up its $15.2 billion commitment to broadcast NFL games.

You're right, a much better argument is what ESPN could do in the future
Where in either of those quotes does it say that ESPN is planning on doing it btw? There goes that reading comprehension again
quote:
The writer points out that “when ESPN agreed to pay $15.2 billion for its current Monday Night Football deal,” Monday Night Football was the biggest game of the week. But since ESPN struck its deal, that most-popular status shifted to Sunday’s game leaving ESPN with a lesser broadcast property.
Interesting
quote:
Miller further speculates that ESPN’s owner, Disney Corp., might just force ESPN to dump the NFL because of the hole the sports network is burning in Disney’s profits. In August it was reported that ESPN’s hemorrhaging of subscribers and asvertisers added to Disney’s financial woes as the cable network’s profits fell another $1.46 billion.
"might just force" now equals "planning"
Lo frickin' L indeed
Apparently your speculation is better proof than the literal negotiation that just happened
/done

I quoted the LA Times article’s answer to your question. Nothing more nothing less
-It did not cost them this year as there is no viewership guarantee
-CBS will be negotiating commercial slot value based on a 7% smaller audience.
I don’t see a melt, I don’t see anything outlandish.
Post a ROTFL emoji if you want, or explain why you think CBS will maintain 5mil per 30 seconds next year. I’m open to discussion.

You bolded a portion that you thought was relevant. It wasn't.

They'll be negotiating based on the most watched product on television.

It is relevant to the question of costing them money. It did not this year, may next year

There we go, some substance. Yes it is, it will still reach less people though. Advertisers could easily invest more heavily in others mediums and spend less on SB ads.. I don’t know the answer

Actually the issue was created by the media and Trump being the savvy politician that he is dimply echoed what many of us were thinking.

No it isn't. Speculation means nothing to this discussion.

The substance was there. No reason I should need to break it down for anyone that feels they can intelligently discuss the topic.

Well, it's a good thing I already gave the answer, then.

So it didn't say it, got it. Just pure speculation again yet you're laughing at an actual deal just made for a very substantial increase.
Oh yea, Gruden had $100 million reasons. $10 million per year > $6.5 million per year

Your speculation that it won’t affecf commercial slot value?
If Zero people tuned in to the super bowl NBC still gets 5 million per 30 seconds. So the future is relevant as that is all that’s affected
My quote says viewership drop will affect CBS negotiations next year, that is a fact. In a negative way is speculation, but far from unfounded.
If viewership increased that’s good right, its likely rates would go up next year? It’s not that crazy to think a 7% loss in vewiership is “not good”

So you are speculating yourself when saying vewiership won’t affect price.
And you are saying it’s a fact that # of projected views will have no bearing whatsoever on CBS negotiating time slots.
We’ll have to agree to disagree. No point in arguing further

Gotcha. So viewership will affect negotiations and price, viewership is on a downward trend.
We’ll see if prices hold or drop. That’s speculation right now, it’s not crazy to expect a drop. We’ll see
