Yes but that assumption is wrong- DGPT and Jomez coverage are a false equivalency. None of the things you said matter other than the acceptance that she has to follow views, regardless of external factors that don't play into the bottom line of exposure and sales.
Sorry for the incoming rant *deep breath*
It doesn't matter if Joe Schmoe covered her from breakfast to bedtime 365 days a year if it doesn't get her any exposure or pay her bills. These athletes have to do what will put ramens on the camp stove and that's mostly merch sales for the majority of the field- Saturation is a term you should understand in this case. More coverage is not necessarily better. More can lead to disinterest if it isn't top notch coverage!
Also, "waiting for Dodge's channel to catch up" is a bull**** paradigm IMO. If their production wasn't already on par they're IDIOTS to think they're going to smash it on the fly and not take a hit. They saw what Jomez was doing and assumed they could do the same and they didn't need them- fully ignoring the false equivalency therein, and the loyalty of the fans who've watched coverage improve and change. It reeks of XFL, and if Dodge keeps himself at the mic during this transition, it will experience similar levels of success. Don't try to reinvent the wheel in a power grab, DO invent new ways to all win together. I've seen "high tides lift all boats" tossed around here but what DGPT is trying to do is pump the high tide out and into their own pool, and that's complete bull****- even more annoying is that someone wants me to believe that bs angle too like I'm 12 and haven't a shred of business acumen.
We all see it, and nobody is impressed with any angle of it. Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. This whole back and forth has been like a middle school class election. I know I'm not alone in having given my last **** about DGPT, and please don't confuse that with me wishing ill on anyone at DGPT- conversely I hope they abandon the "island of one" asinine outlook, but hey if they want egg on their face that's their business. Plenty of it on there right now, that's for sure.
