"Sinclair Broadcast Group (SBGI), Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL), Amazon.com (AMZN), Blackstone Group (BX) and Apollo Global Management (APO) are reportedly among the companies interested in Fox’s regional sports networks. Comcast could also be interested after missing out on a full buyout of Fox. Comcast already owns seven regional sports networks."
Any company entering in sports will not quit with regional networks and they will want content.

Any company that buys some Fox RSNs could be a candidate to bid on the AAC contract next year and give ESPN some competition.
