What a fucking bunch of bullshit. NFL isn't broadcasting anything for free, they're getting tens of billions of dollars from the broadcast companies for licensing their shows.

The broadcast companies also aren't doing this for free, they're getting billions from the ads they shove down our throats. They're also getting the licenses to use the TV frequency, something we gave them to ensure they return whatever they broadcast for "free".
