Date: February 20th, 2018 6:07 PM Author: Swollen jew generalized bond american racing sports sort of committed suicide. they got a big boost after 9/11 because of the association with patriotism and general "americana." the industry responded to this surge in popularity with unbridled greed - deciding that it had to "expand" its demographic base by forcememing women and nonwhite drivers and giving as many concessions as possible to GC for quick cash. this alienated its fans without actually attracting any new nontraditional demographic interest.

You're arguing over whether it was price gouging or changes in the product that killed NASCAR, when Netflix, Tivo, and iPads did the deed. |

Date: February 20th, 2018 6:09 PM Author: Flesh Hairraiser Organic Girlfriend Yarmulke Sports viewership, overall, has dropped in half over the last decade. The effects are different among sports. Some, like the NBA and Premier Football are doing well.
Others, like NASCAR, Indy car, and golf have dropped off a cliff.
But the general trend is down, down, down for all TV sports. |
