    As far as I know ESPN lost the broadcasting rights to another US TV station.

I was in the Innoventions Dream Home at DL once and the TV was showing news coverage of a fiery car wreck; not exactly the happiest stuff on earth when it's outside of Disney's control (not that I expect anything terrible to happen during the games, but I would expect some discussion of the ongoing protests and such)
