USA warns: Traveling to neighboring Germany is dangerous!
The security situation in Germany has attracted the attention of the US government. In a current warning, the USA points out the possible dangers associated with traveling to Germany's neighboring country. A particular focus is on pickpocketing and the potential risks posed by terrorist activities. The warning highlights that travelers should be particularly careful as reports of pickpocketing and other crimes increase. U.S. citizens are urged to be vigilant and keep an eye on personal belongings, especially in busy tourist areas.
The US government also encourages its citizens to check current safety information before traveling to Germany in order to better assess possible risks. This warning could have an impact on the tourism sector in Germany, which was already severely affected by the pandemic. The worrying security situation could cause potential visitors to reconsider or adjust their travel plans.
Media rights in basketball
In parallel, there is an 11-year, $2.2 billion deal for the WNBA with the same partners. The new strategy aims to increase the focus of transmissions on broadcast and streaming channels, while reducing the focus on cable networks. NBC will broadcast national games on Sundays following the NFL season and Tuesdays during the regular season, while ABC will maintain its national weekend schedule.
Changes in the transmission sector
Additionally, Prime Video will stream 66 regular season games, and Peacock plans to implement a doubleheader format on Mondays. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has emphasized that the increase in media rights value is due to a growing portfolio of broadcast opportunities. However, Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) is facing financial challenges and faces a decline of about $40 billion in debt. Turner Sports is ending its partnership with the NBA after 40 years and has taken legal action to continue including TNT in broadcasts.
The changes not only affect the media situation, but also have an impact on the talent within the NBA. Many well-known analysts and reporters, including Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy, have recently lost their positions and are now looking for new opportunities. The decline in cable providers has led some NBA teams to create their own networks to ensure continued access to their fans.
Developments in media rights and ultimate shifts in broadcast strategy will shape the way American sports fans watch the sport they love and demonstrate the growing interplay between traditional and new media.
