TL;DR Summary

Diamond Sports Group, the largest owner of regional sports networks (RSNs) in the US, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company operates 19 RSNs under the Bally Sports brand name, with games from more than half of all MLB, NBA and NHL teams. The move comes as RSNs have become a tough sell for many cable providers, after long being part of pay-TV's linchpin. Diamond Sports Group intends to use the proceedings to restructure and strengthen its balance sheet, while continuing to broadcast quality live sports productions to fans across the nation.
