Ranking the major sports networks from most elitist to Fox SportsPrestige and journalism shouldn’t go hand-in-hand together. Sure, there are outlets with enough history and money to have ethics departments, fact-checkers, and paying subscribers, but the omnipresent tier — the ones controlling the rights to the big sports — are cost-cutting corporate slugs like th...

There’s also the little nugget that slotting down the No. 2 team is going to cost Olsen some $7 million a year. Har...
