Excuse me managing a huge network different than one little show

We will see how nexstar networks with the cw and the affiliated tv stations around rne nation. They are the largesf owner of tv stations in the nation. These networks are here to make a profilt. If rhey find a cheap annimation and can make a profit great. Af nexatar level - they just tell cw executive their profit goals for cw and the executive makes it so. And down ro the individual viewer it doesnt matter- they are getting enough on return of investment to make it work In regards to tv rights the rights that cw got from raycom is rights acc sold when rhe media deal was signed and it goes as well into 2035. The owners of those rights can broker it anyway they can as well as sit on it and dont broadcast anything as long as they write the reoccuring check agreed in 2016

LIV golf will force a couple to Saturday evening, I think.

Imagine the travel costs of non-revenue sports traveling cross-country
VPI_1998 • 07/15/23 09:28 AM ET
Likely ESPN will make that call since they own the first 3-4 choices.**
Stech • 07/15/23 04:28 AM ET
Very interesting ..
Mercury • 07/14/23 12:58 PM ET
First thing that hit me when I saw it. Think like an Owner or CEO, where's
Stech • 07/14/23 01:15 PM ET
They need programming
mrcaniac • 07/14/23 04:27 PM ET
They do, seems interesting they announce the ACC before anything w/ the PAC
Stech • 07/15/23 04:32 AM ET
This is probably the easiest package in sports to sell
mrcaniac • 07/15/23 10:07 PM ET
CW. Is that the channel with the dancing cartoon frog w/ top hat and cane?**

Can’t be a ton of money. They would have announced if so.**
hokieZ71 • 07/13/23 10:22 PM ET
Isn't it the same $ since ESPN sold those games to Raycom?
Victor Tango • 07/14/23 09:13 AM ET
I'd imagine it's a bit more.
hokieZ71 • 07/14/23 09:17 AM ET
money aside, this puts games back on locally where RSN in many cases didn't
anotherdamnyankeehokie • 07/14/23 08:34 AM ET
I agree. The Raycom/Bally deal was crappy. Blacked out 3-4 times in 2022
hokieZ71 • 07/14/23 09:09 AM ET
I got tired of feeling like I was watching
Hokie12thman • 07/14/23 10:01 AM ET
Raycom is going to produce the games for the CW**
nickp91 • 07/14/23 07:32 AM ET
CW is National, 🤔**
Stech • 07/13/23 08:10 PM ET
CW is national.....
2hhoop3 • 07/13/23 09:08 PM ET
Will every CW affiliate nationwide show those ACC games?
Old Line Hokie • 07/13/23 11:50 PM ET
Was hinting that "if" there were a ACC PAC merger, CW could cover it in PAC
