Will Fox Create a New ESPN

NewCorp Buy YES - Link

The Yes Network adds signiticant value to the Fox Regional Sports Network. I can see them trying to create a National Sports Network like ESPN.

Great. Fair and balanced. I can hardly wait.

Oh, Lord. Does this mean that Limbaugh's gonna do football again?

Several years ago, I posted that the Husky women, being the class of the game, should try to get a national deal simular to ND's football deal. SNY is a great start to that goal. It's a regional deal which can be national. I get the games on FIOS by getting their best package. A new sports network would give the Huskies a chance for every game on national TV. Imagine the exposure!

Did you notice the last line of that report / commentary - that it was about time because ESPN promotes too liberal an agenda and "which has had political consequences" and also touts Pres. Obama??

The day my sports channel feels the need to shove politics (of ANY sort) down my throat, off it goes. Sure, there is a political aspect to SOME sports stories, but please . . .

Author probably has issues with ESPN's "liberal" support for Title IX too

It would not be a bad thing for ESPN to have a little competition.

Because ESPN's coverage of PSU has been so liberally driven in supporting JoePA.

More sports on TV? sounds good to me.

At the same time, the NBC Sports Network is challenging for more market share by bidding for more sports programming. Over the long haul they both may challenge ESPN for market share.

Great. Fair and balanced. I can hardly wait.

you have to realize what website the article is on. Breitbart is just as far right, as the state run media outlets, mslsd, and the communist news network are to the left...
