6. Regional sports networks are the single
biggest change [in sports TV] over the past 25
years. They put out the entire slate of games
of the local team, and that feeds the beast.
Big time live sports is more important
than anything else on American
television, and it certainly is the savior of
classic American network television.
- Dick Ebersol, Former Chairman of NBC Sports
7. Probably the biggest disappointment
(was) I was never able to get ESPN
into the regional business. I like that
business. It’s very loyal, has big
ratings and would have been great.
But I could never convince (former ABC
Chair & CEO) Tom Murphy or (former Cap
Cities President & COO) Dan Burke to
actually invest.
