I know that's the preferred narrative on FR, but it is a Free Republic urban legend. All sports providers are losing subscribers including Fox Sports. There is a secular decline in the sports broadcasting sector. It has virtually nothing to do with politics.
Mmm-hmm. I see. Consumer anger against the sports networks for their support of idiots like Kaepernick and the conversion of sports (as with everything liberals touch) into a social experiment had nothing to do with it. Total Sasquatch observation.
Oh, by the way... what color is the sky on your planet?
Most cable networks are losing viewers, as more people “cut the cord.”. The question is whether the rate of decline is higher at ESPN than at Fox Sports or other sports networks. I don’t know the answer to that question. Do you?
