Re: Just think what they can do to mess up the Olympics Only 15% get their TV through OTA, %60 cable, %25 rest satellite. OTA TV is dead in this country. Judge John Doe, Jerry Springer, gameshows, reality shows, talk shows, and violence, blood, sex news means only the lowest most feeble minded people watch it. Plus the above has very low production costs. Anyone with a spark in their head wants the content diversity and specialization of cable-ish TV (includes satellite and telco TV). Although there are some people who generally don't watch TV, and only watch 1 or 2 shows on OTA TV, usually the primetimes, and because they have so little time to devote to TV, a cable subscription isn't worth it.
Having the Olympics on ESPN or cable is inevitable. |
