How NBC broadcaster Bob Costas was dropped from Super Bowl LII broadcast | Boston.com
The NFL is a billion-dollar investment for networks and “all of them dance to the NFL’s tune. Everyone walks on eggshells around the NFL,” he said. Costas continued to speak about football in the fall preceding Super Bowl LII, with the network saying that his “opinions are his own and do not represent those of the NBC Sports Group.”
Said Costas: “So I guess NBC is not sure whether there is a connection between football and brain trauma. And I imagine the next press release is: It’s still open to question whether or not the earth is round or flat. OK. Sure.”
