This makes the economics of Caitlin Clark interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now, the Caitlin Clark effect on ticket sales and likely game attendance appears to exceed that of any male superstar basketball player of the past four decades. However, the real money, and the real benefit to the WNBA, comes from TV,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe typical WNBA game receives about a half-million viewers. But, out of a 40-game regular season, only four or five games will likely be televised. For the 2024 season, 36 out of 40 Fever games will be televised across seven networks,\u201d he wrote, noting that on average, a WNBA game draws 1 in 700 Americans while about 1 in 20 Americans watched Clark\u2019s Iowa Hawkeyes fall to South Carolina for the NCAA championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cClark benefits from those who went before her, and her presence is already influencing the game for a generation to come. If you doubt me on that issue, try ordering a Clark jersey in girls\u2019 sized small,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>An Important Message from Our Staff:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>We who work here at The Western Journal have fought for years against Big Tech and the elites who want to shut us down and then shut America down. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Make no mistake \u2014 nothing will be the same after November 2024.
