ESPN Blacked Out as Sports Calendar Heats Up

from Front Office Sports Today · host Front Office Sports

Disney is in a high-stakes carriage dispute with cable company Charter — one that blacked out ESPN and other Disney-owned stations for millions of fans at the peak of the US Open, the start of the college football season, and on the eve of the first ESPN-broadcast ‘Monday Night Football’ game. Cord-cutting and Disney’s long-term plans for ESPN+ make this tussle more complicated than past carriage disputes. Plus, we hear from Philadelphia Eagles’ linebacker Haason Reddick on his offseason, charity work, returning to the Eagles after their run to the Super Bowl, and the state of NFL player pay.
