Not sure. This is from the article...

quote:

What do you think how much could be his net worth? Appreciating his work, his news agency is paying him a huge amount of salary. It has a huge impact in collecting his net worth. His Net worth is around $2 million and annual salary is around $95,000 including bonus and incentives.

Most of his earnings even come from advertisements and commentaries.

Ya, I read all that and was looking for a source but couldn't find anything. Got to take that with a grain of salt for sure. Don't have a bunch of experience with that site though, maybe they prove to be fairly accurate on their information.

lol at people who think politics is a big influence in this. People cut the cord because cable is expensive and we have entertainment alternatives now.

Politics is a major part in why people are not interested in subscribing anymore; it's not why people are being laid off. Politics is one of the reasons why people choose the "entertainment alternatives." Lot of people would be fine with just theSEC network and not have ESPN at all as a matter of fact.

These days, the multi-tasking millenials rely more on highlight shows and the social media to stay informed more than ever.

Of course they won't cut fricktards like Mike Golic, Mike Greenberg, Jamele Hill, Stephen A. Smith, Mark May, Danny Kannell, Joey Galloway, Lowell Galindo, etc.


Danny Kannell is out. And the crowds rejoiced.

This is what is killing them. People are cutting the cord or only watching live events because of the preachy nature of the "debate" shows and even the "highlight" shows. Those (mostly conservative) people who would watch those shows got tired of being preached at.


This doesn't add up. Consumers aren't cutting the cord because they're fed up with ESPN. They're cutting the cord because they have cheaper alternatives to cable.

Okay guy, millennials are driving cutting the cord because they can't handle ESPN's liberal bias. Look at who young people, who by and large make up cord cutters, voted for and get back to me.

And no, highlight shows will never get the ratings they used to get.

Sorry you can't see the trends old man, I'll get off your lawn now.

You hit it on the head. It really is simple economic cost/benefit. It really has nothing to do with the Limbaugh tinted glass wearing regressives looking to blame liberalism for their lot in life.

I realize being an SEC board dominated by the "South's" racist hillbilly mostly ignorant traditions but I just wish you Trumpsters would put a muzzle on. You won and I am sure your life situation is already greatly improved so step outside your trailer your mama passed onto you pop open a Natty Lite, recall fine memories of your favorite hanging tree and pop off a few clips from you assault rifle which one wonders how you afforded it and enjoy your life.

Ed Cunningham still isn't on the list somehow and he is the worst.

The best part about their posts is how they ignore that ESPN has recently acknowledged the problem and put out a 'tone it down' message to their staff.

That would just be Bigly FAKE NEWS. Not taken in context of the sole much less answering the direct question..Typical slanting of the truth of the matter asserted. Sadly funny, Other than and if you were to take out the linear logic and relevant multi-syllable words my response would ironically sound like the massively bigly awesome _"The Donald"
