And those citizens are now global. NFL easily makes up the most watched shows on all of television and will continue to do such on other platforms, as well. Gotta love it!

For event broadcasting, yes - Comparing apples & oranges though...

With the advent of streaming et al media, folks now can choose to watch alternate entertainment on their schedule, not the same with event broadcasts...

The NFL has been king for two decades, but is now seeing decline in its numbers...

Twelve of the twenty most watched primetime shows in 2020 were NFL related.

As for a decline in numbers, ALL broadcast televised programming is on the decline with the advent of streaming. I know several people that watch all of their NFL content via stream, including both of my sons. One of them gave us a firestick for Christmas so I may be among those numbers soon.
