RE: ESPN Could Lose More Viewers If No Agreement Be Made With Altice/Suddenlink

A&E Networks (which owns A&E, History, Lifetime and several more networks) is a 50-50 joint venture of Disney and Hearst. Sound familiar? ESPN is an 80-20 join venture of Disney and Hearst. They may be willing to participate in some bundles in which ESPN does not, but only with the OK of both of ESPN's owners. If they're allowing this, I'm guessing that their market research shows that it is not a significant threat to the moneymaker.
