Yahoo Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski May Head to ESPN (Report)
According to Deadspin, he could bring some of his colleagues from Yahoo’s NBA domain, “The Vertical,” with him to the World Wide Leader.
According to Deadspin, “Wojnarowski’s exit from Yahoo is complicated” and will “likely take months to fully sort out.”
At an estimated $7 per subscriber, that dip has been a substantial hit to Disney, especially considering media networks made up 49 percent of Disney’s profits during fiscal 2016.
Adding Wojnarowski could help lift the network’s NBA product, as he would be a valuable asset to game coverage and ESPN airs plenty of NBA content, in addition to holding rights fees.
