That's my point, it jumps all over the place and it's more of like a TMZ.

And there is the root of the problem. MTv stopped showing music and espn did something similar. Its mostly op-ed and doesn't highlight all sports. ESPN used to be about sports. There were so many sports that they had to grow into another channel for content. As they tried to increase market share, ESPN decided to have more drama related content. This started about the time Disney bought ABC. People are tired of it. Combine that with all the different ways to get content and its a disaster for them. They don't matter anymore.
