Changing the TV sports game
Article Abstract:
Canadian sports networks are vying for advertisers who want to reach the male audience. The well-established TSN, the only 24-hour national sports broadcaster in Canada, continues to be the favorite of advertisers despite the aggressive push of CTV Sportsnet, which opted for the slogan "It's a whole new game." TSN is the most profitable specialty channel in Canada, with around $50 million a year in total advertising revenues and coverage of 7.2 million cabled homes. The network has an overall audience share of 73% male in the hard-to-reach 18-49 male demographic.
