Diamond's RSNs return to Comcast on a tier; mapping out the global event calendar and changes to NFL sideline interviews

A-Block (1:40) SPECIAL COMMENT: As I reported in our live video version of this podcast on YouTube and Twitch right after the "debate," there were three participants in the CNN event last night, not just two. President Biden was competing against the tag team of Trump and CNN.  I warned here on Wednesday that CNN's abrogation of the primary responsibility of any journalistic effort anywhere and at any time in the history of the world (when the guy urinates on your leg and tells you it's raining, you're supposed to SAY something) had the potential to render the first Biden-Trump "debate" into a repeat of the network's disastrous live Town Hall with Trump last year. But in that one, and though she failed, Kaitlin Collins at least tried to push back against Trump's firehouse of lies. Last night, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash disgraced themselves and disqualified themselves from any future reportorial credibility (under the guidance of CNN political director David Chalian and new chief Mark Thompson). CNN gave Trump 45 minutes in front of an audience that may have topped 100,000,000 to lie about everything from January 6th to his own golf performance. I documented 40 of the lies. I think I missed two-thirds of them, or more. CNN pushed back against exactly none. The network had promised to at least not abide Trump's lies about the 2020 election and having set the truth bar as low as it could have gone, failed to reach even that.It's not just that Bash and Tapper should be fired (and Chalian and Thompson and anybody else in management responsible for this utter, corrupt pandering to Trump). If I had done what they did, I would have resigned and fled the country by now. And probably changed my name. In a just world, CNN would be forced off the air and out of business, today, and its offices evacuated and the empty buildings leveled. The operation where I began my TV career in 1981 and resumed my news career in 2002 is dead and its credibility is now marked with the NewsMaxes and RSNs of this world. As to Biden's halting and hoarse performance, he is bloodied but unbowed. More on that in the third segment of this podcast. B-BLOCK (17:01) MORE SPECIAL COMMENT: We'll review some of the key clips from the Trump Town Ha--- I'm sorry "CNN Presidential Debate" including the remarkable truth that while one of the candidates is seeking the office to avoid prison and will do anything to anybody to win - as he tried to do in 2020 - Tapper and Bash did not even bring up the topic of democracy until the 39th minute of the "debate," and waited even longer to question Trump about his status as the worst criminal in our nation's history. C-BLOCK (40:28) QUESTIONS FROM YOU: Observations from viewers of the debate and the live podcast and my replies - including the three or four different components to one obvious question: "Is it too late to replace Biden?" There are three answers, the most important of which is: if you do, you trade a still likely victory over evil for certain defeat. No would-be replacement comes within 10 points of Trump in polling. It's that simple.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fubo's Co-Founder and CEO, David Gandler, sits down for an in-depth discussion about their lawsuit filed against Disney, FOX, and WBD, its Q1 earnings numbers, industry challenges around content licensing pricing and bundling and Fubo's goal to get to profitability in 2025. David defines antitrust, why Fubo believes the JV is anticompetitive and how the suit's outcome could impact the entire industry. We also highlight why so many carriage disputes are happening, leading to a fragmentation of sports content and an unfriendly fan experience. We discuss the pricing and bundling of vMVPD services, including how Fubo picks RSNs to work with and why pricing for OTT services never goes down.Finally, David recaps Fubo's most recent earnings, including its subscriber growth numbers, lower net loss, the recent reduction of its debt, and Fubo's operating plan as they work towards profitability.Podcast produced by Security Halt Media

Parsing the latest reports on the battle for the NBA's next round of broadcast rights, a question about the NBA schedule and how the league should think about competing with the NFL, and the implications of an increasingly bleak outlook for regional sports networks.

It's another mailbag! Sorry still out of the country! Did you enjoy the NFL draft? Did your team get everything right? (2:11) Someone asked me about the NPDS Tour and how things are going.

Step up to the plate with us this week as we tackle the complex maze of baseball streaming. We cover the latest baseball streaming news with Fubo adding RSNs, Hulu+ Live TV adding the MLB Network, and discuss the terrible fan experience with some MLB teams requiring fans to access five different networks to stream games. We also highlight other sports news, including Peacock's exclusive streaming deal for the NFL's first-ever regular-season game in Brazil and Amazon's sublicensing deal with Viaplay to broadcast 38 live Premier League games a season in Sweden and Denmark. We break down the launch of Hulu on Disney+ in the U.S. for Disney bundled subscribers, and why we think the report that YouTube TV will reach profitability in 2024 isn't accurate. Finally, we debunk the ridiculous report suggesting that because Bitmovin's live encoder is now deployed on Akamai, it "raises M&A eyebrows" for them to be acquired.   Podcast produced by Security Halt Media

Hulu has been integrated into Disney+, but key UX features aren't yet included. ESPN is moving toward being a hub with RSN feeds, and the NFL is skeptical of the sports JV.

On this week's pod, our Big Get is Fox MLB lead analyst John Smoltz. The Hall of Fame pitcher gets us set for the full start of the MLB season with our host, SBJ's Austin Karp.  Later, SBJ baseball writer Erik Bacharach dives into the latest with RSNs. Also on the show, SBJ golf writer Josh Carpenter dives into the latest as the PGA Tour battles declining TV numbers.

John Ourand joins Peter to dig into the latest high-level dramas captivating the sports business world: the turf war between the NFL and college football, whether RSNs can hold onto highly coveted sports rights, how MLB execs are parsing the viral “Pantsgate” scandal, and more.

For a minority investment in Diamond Sports, Amazon takes charge of the most valuable part of the business. And the RSNs become another cog in the Amazon flywheel.

Andrew Marchand published a list of the 25 most powerful people in sports media this year. Stephen A. Smith topped the list, followed by Lionel Messi, CBS' Sean McManus, ESPN's Jimmy Pitaro and Fox Sports' Eric Shanks. Hosts Marchand and John Ourand debated the executives and talent who should be on the list; the ones who should be off the list; and the ones that were placed too high or too low. The two then talked about the repercussions from having Amazon potentially invest in the bankrupt RSN company, Diamond Sports Group.   Marchand and Ourand handicapped the NBA talks and broke down Josh Krulewitz' big promotion to run ESPN's comms team. Ourand ended the pod by discussing his decision to move from SBJ to Puck Media. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In what was most likely the best game of the year (and maybe series of the year), the Reds came out on top beating the Braves 11-10 behind an Elly De La Cruz cycle and TWO clutch homers by Joey Votto. The Reds were edged out by the Braves in two 1-run games following Friday night's matchup, but the series between the two hottest teams in the NL did not disappoint. We also congratulate Fransisco Lindor for passing Harold Baines' career WAR in the newest installment of the Baines Meter! Other topics include the Angels 25-1 rout of the Rockies, the BID parlay, Freddie Freeman's 3000th hit, the possibility of active pitchers reaching 300 career wins, and more!

In March 2023, Diamond Sports, the parent company of Bally Sports Regional Networks, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, but as of the release of this podcast, is currently operating as normal. Diamond's parent company Sinclair has amassed $8 billion in debt since its acquisition of the RSNs in 2019. 14 MLB Teams have their games carried on a Bally Sports Network. There are also several NBA and NHL teams as well. Kurt Bodenhausen is a reporter for Sportico and has been covering this story for that website. In this episode, he explains why Sinclair/Diamond bought the RSNs in the first place when cord-cutting and streaming were on the rise. He also explains how all Bally Sports Network teams are not suffering the same fate. Follow Kurt on social media @kbadenhausen.
