NFL Network Commentary
November 28, 2008
Robert Seidman of TV by the Numbers chimes in on the NFL’s experiment with its own network. Money quote:

I understand greed and hubris as much as the next guy. Sometimes it pays off. But this isn’t one of those times. The good old fashioned greed of extorting the television networks, who will in turn extort the advertisers, who will gladly be extorted since they cherish the demographics of people who watch NFL games, seems to be the way to go.
Check here for background on Suddenlink and the NFL Network.
