A Little More Politics With Your Football
ESPN will be selling more of it’s advertising to political campaigns this fall, because of high demand from candidates, political parties and super PACs (Source). Football is a ratings bonanza, so it makes sense that there would be demand by campaigns for ad time on stations like ESPN. However, not everyone is happy about the upcoming transition (Source). Personally, I won’t mind; I’ve been mixing politics and football for years by sending candidates to football games on Friday night (in Texas, it’s where the people are).
