Scenario 2-3 ABC Television Network Notified the Miss America Organization That It

Question 56

Multiple Choice

Scenario 2-3
ABC television network notified the Miss America Organization that it would not pick up the show for broadcast in 2005, leaving the pageant without a major broadcast outlet for the first time in 50 years. The news cannot have come as a shock to the Miss America Organization. A little more than a decade ago, the competition that started as an Atlantic City publicity stunt had grown to about 27 million viewers; in 2004, it drew a record-low 9.8 million, with the median age of the Miss America audience at 51. ABC paid $5.6 million for broadcast rights to the pageant in 2003. ABC, which took over the pageant after 30-year sponsor NBC bowed out, was not doing Miss America any favors airing it on Saturdays -- a low-viewership night.
