Hyperion Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 19 hours ago, Titansurf32 said: This is why Espn is having layoffs. Terrible business decisions. Keep force feeding feminist agenda (7% of women) while revenues drop. It's a very poor decision but they don't really seem to learn from their mistakes or care about the preferences of their audience.. Men will always be your core audience for sports media. Men like sports as an escape from life, work and women. There's no way a majority of men enjoy a female commentator or prefer it over a generic male broadcaster.

h4t Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Her voice is so monotone and lacks excitement. Why would they pick her. My wife by the way, hates most female voices on TV. When Christina on "Flip or Flop" starts talking she makes me mute it immediately Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 I don't like the way she seems to trail the play. No biggy though, I'll be listening to Mike Keith for the Titans anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if a huge bunch of women tune in just because they use a woman play by play? Even guys will watch out of curiosity. Not really a bad decision but obviously a decision trying to shake up ratings. She isn't taking over MNF. Just doing one game. pay attention posters. Sox and I agree on something which means it's most likely the correct line of thinking. pat 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN isn't putting her on to "prove" that she's just as good as the men. Simply appealing to a female demographic isn't feminist.For example, those ridiculous pink fan jerseys that they very clearly market towards women are far from feminist and some could effectively argue that they're actually the opposite (sexist). This is either a cash grab or them just thinking she's the best for the job. Not everything is a part of the vast libtard/SJW/PC culture agenda.

She isn't taking over MNF. Just doing one game. In general women dont enjoy watching men's sports and hardly enjoy watching women's sports. This move isnt some grand experiment that they can reach an untapped audience with. ESPN has been trying to tap into the womens demographic using shows that have more of a TMZ feel to them as opposed to straight xs and os sports for over a decade now. They have admitted to such. Their ratings and revenues have dropped because in doing so they have lost their key male demographic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly they have a motive here. My original point was that they are being social justice warriors and subsequently making bad business decisions. They have bet and continue to bet on a losing horse. Soxcat 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't going to mean anything besides possibly gaining a small female audience but even then, I don't know anyone dumb enough to turn a game on (or off) because a female announcer. ESPN has made many bad decisions but the only ones NFL related in terms of them losing money is a) not talking about it more b) how much they paid for MNF rights.
