Partly because Fox has the World Series.

Typically what happens when your ‘sports’ hosts constantly inject ‘race’ into every topic....not to mention calling their viewers racist.

And the clown that is head of Disney keeps talking about a run for president?

ESPN has been laying off for over a year. They’re losing their rears. This PC clown wants to do for the nation what he’s done for ESPN? Geezzzzzzz.........

Because nobody wants to watch them unless it’s a good game on. Nobody cares for all their political shows masquerading as sports shows.

Is this just from people cutting the cable TV cord (ie. with Comcast)? Is there any other way to cancel an ESPN subscription? If this is the case there should be a whole lot of other stations losing an equal amount of subscribers.

Dirty little secret. Usually if you go on YouTube, somebody is streaming a feed from ESPN, during a game. It may not be great quality but at least you can follow the game.

How do you find it though?

Do you search for “ESPN live stream” or the names of the teams that are playing?

I can never seem to find any when I try.

ESPN isn’t the only cable sports giant to lose massively among subscribers. FS1 584,000 households in the month of October
This is poorly written, but I believe FS1 lost more than half a million viewers in just one month. Hurraaaaay!
I'd dump ESPN and FS1 if I could but TW (now Spectrum) has them bundled into my deal.

Search for your game, and then You Tube has a filter where you can filter Live events.

Yes but if they DID have the World Series I’d be
sticking with them for at least a few more days.

ESPN has a radio team that consists of a bunch of little leftist schmoes that hate America, Christianity and conservatives. They have managed to lose a huge chunk of their audience that has tired of being insulted when they tuned in, RIP ESPN

Maybe ESPN will market directly to ‘social justice warriors’ and rebuild their consumer base?

Their liberal swerve didn't help with democrats, it just cratered support from everyone else.

ESPN has never broadcast the World Series.

Since not everyone has ESPN, it would be detrimental to limit viewership to that outlet. Everyone can get the broadcast networks.
