The NFL is a business. FOX is a business. It is their job to make money. Nothing more, nothing less. The Super Bowl is the most watched TV event worldwide on an annual basis. If you look down the list of the most watched TV programs in the history of the planet, the entire top of the list is made up of the Super Bowls over the last decade. Do you think that is because of the football game being played on the field? Does having Lady Gaga perform at halftime bring in more money for them than the Texas State Armadillos marching band? Of course it does. It is ridiculous to expect them to do anything else. |

You want to make the argument that the inaguration should be done with minimal theatre, great. I couldn't agree more, but comparing it to the Super Bowl, an event whose sole purpose is to make money and bitching because the organizations involved do exactly that, is stupid. |

Trump should demand all the networks that run the inauguration contribute part of their profits from commercials aired during the ceremony to veterans' charities. Viewership should be high. The Hillary voters will be at home anyway, waiting on their EBT cards to be reloaded, and I bet plenty of the Donald's supporters will take at least part of the day off to watch/celebrate a win for America. All that leads to sky high ratings, and thus, an advertiser payday that should be shared with those who sacrificed for our freedom.

But hey, maybe I'm wrong! Maybe Fleetwood Mac, U2 and Jennifer Holiday appeared at past Inaugurations for free out of blind patriotism. I'm sure no one's looking to make money there. |
