FOX wins big broadcasting Super Bowl

By Super Bowl 50 the average NFL fan will most likely not remember which station Super Bowl 42 was broadcasted on but FOX will, merely because the money they produced from the game will still be circulating through the network and its shows. FOX is the big winner with its hand held high (think "Swingers").
So the Giants from New York won the Super Bowl, which in its conclusion seduced nearly 98 million viewers being the second highest viewed television program only behind the legendary television show "MASH."
It was averaged that each 30 second commercial spot during the Super Bowl was worth roughly $2.7 million. Some advertisements worked and benefited from the pricey tag and others didn't. FOX on the other hand had 20 advertisement spots during the commercial break not to mention what they advertised during the actual game. FOX even had a quick advertisement/commercial about how special their radar and weather doppler is. No joke.
So next year when the Super Bowl comes around think about the 2008 Super Bowl and remember: Despite who ever wins the game, the station broadcasting the Super Bowl is and always will be "the big winner." Of course, if the NFL decides to go pay-per-view or on-demand advertisers are going to be killing for commercial time, literally. But that's for another time. For now, don't forget about the 97.5 million viewers and the most watched Super Bowl ever, Super Bowl 42 brought to you by FOX.
