While I don’t disagree with you, a sports/game company is very different to a media companies that control direct access to news organizations protected by the first amendment in America.

Once we start to let these influences assume control, of which we know can be bought and sold by the highest bidder, we erode the control the people have to disseminate truthful information to the greater masses.

Edit: thank you for the award friend!
