We're back as Summer rolls on with more on sports media takes, ratings and interviews on the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast."
Host T.J. Rives is back with more on:
Scottie Scheffler winning another golf major and actually brining more audience for NBC on Sunday late morning/early afternoon.
The WNBA All Star Game last Saturday night predicably having a dud audience on ABC (down over 30%) with Caitlin Clark injured and unable to play.
And, what about FS1 cable turning to Dave Portnoy's "Barstool Sports" to help their lifeless audience numbers during the week, etc.?
Then, T.J. brings aboard Pro Football Hall of Fame voter, noted NFL author and national writer Jason Cole to go over some top stories. What's going on with the NFL Players Association and the ouster of their executive director. And, why isn't it seemingly getting more media and public scrutiny? Jason and T.J. debate. Plus, they talk some interesting storylines for the upcming season.
The show wraps with T.J. giving thoughts on Paramount/CBS cancelling Steven Colbert's late night show on the network- a show failing in audience and losing massive money. Where have you gone Johnny Carson?!
It's all on the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast" and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.!
