Shares of stocks in the broader communication services sector are trading lower as stocks sell off amid concerns over the US economy.

As polling and betting markets peg the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential race</a> between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump as a dead heat, billions will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/01/36853421/largest-pac-advertising-blitz-in-us-history-which-2024-presidential-candidate-companies-">likely be spent on advertising</a>.
<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-30/trump-harris-ad-buys-focus-on-five-states-in-revamped-2024-race">According</a> to Bloomberg, Harris and Trump have collectively booked $122 million in advertising time through the end of August, with 98% of the spending focused on just five swing states:
<ul>
<li>Pennsylvania —&nbsp;19 electoral votes.</li>
<li>Michigan — 15 electoral votes.</li>
<li>Wisconsin — 10 electoral votes.</li>
<li>Georgia — 16 electoral votes.</li>
<li>Arizona — 11 electoral votes.</li>
</ul>
New <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39973800/trump-vs-harris-vice-president-gains-ground-lost-by-joe-biden-in-swing-states">swing state polling</a> shows Harris gaining major ground on Trump; the election is very much up in the air with just over three months to go.
Most of the $122 million in advertising will likely go to television commercials, the most popular networks include:
<ul>
<li>CBS, owned by Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>).</li>
<li>Fox and Fox News, owned by Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>).</li>
<li>ABC and ESPN, owned by Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>).</li>
<li>NBC and MSNBC, owned by Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>).</li>
<li>CNN and TBS, owned by Warner Bros Discovery Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>).</li>
</ul>
The following are the largest publicly traded local TV conglomerates:
<ul>
<li>Gray Television, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GTN#NYSE">GTN</a>)</li>
<li>Sinclair Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBGI#NASDAQ">SBGI</a>)</li>
<li>Nexstar Media Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXST#NASDAQ">NXST</a>)</li>
</ul>
The 2024 election is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/penny-stocks/23/09/34584125/political-ad-spending-in-2024-election-to-smash-records-projected-totals-stocks-to-watch">projected to eclipse $10 billion</a> in advertising, with $2.7 billion dedicated to the presidential race.
Social media advertising has also become more popular in recent years — according to a post on X, the Harris campaign spent $28.6 million on Facebook and Instagram, owned by Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), along with Alphabet Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google and YouTube. Meanwhile, Trump spent $1.4 million.
Trump&#8217;s campaign has possibly instead turned digital advertising efforts to Elon Musk&#8216;s X. Musk endorsed Trump for president on July 13.
According to the FEC, the Biden (now Harris) campaign had over $95 million in cash on hand at the end of June. Trump had $128 million. Harris <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40024472/kamala-harris-raises-200m-in-a-week-66-of-that-money-is-from-donors-reveals-campaign-manager-a-peopl">reportedly raised $200 million</a> shortly after entering the race in late July.

Harris, Trump's $122M August Ad Blitz Targets 5 Swing States: Which Companies Will Benefit?

Media company Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) isn't ready to give up its highly coveted national <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/07/39900318/warner-bros-discoverys-tnt-sports-counters-amazon-with-1-9b-nba-broadcast-rights-bid-report">NBA TV rights yet.</a>
The media company matched a deal signed by Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), setting up a potential battle.
What Happened: The National Basketball Association announced The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>), Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) and Amazon signed deals <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/07/39733479/nba-fans-rejoice-new-76b-deal-from-espn-amazon-nbc-will-bring-games-seven-days-a-week">worth a combined </a>$76 billion over 11 years recently.
As part of an existing contract with the NBA, Warner Bros. Discovery was able to match any of the new deals that begin in the 2025-2026 season.
"We have reviewed the offers and matched one of them," Warner Bros. Discovery unit TNT said in a statement. "This will allow fans to keep enjoying our unparalleled coverage."
The match is reported to be one signed by Amazon and could put the NBA in a tough position. The league could end up trying to reject the match from Warner Bros. as it looks to diversify with streaming partners and after seeing the success of Amazon's "Thursday Night Football." This could lead to legal action from Warner Bros.
NBA team owner Mark Cuban has offered a potential solution to the problem.
"My suggestion would be that they get Diamond local rights, and overlay the games on TBS for local broadcast," Cuban <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1815562039106154721">said </a>in a reply to a tweet on the ball being in the NBA's court now on the offer match.
Cuban, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/23/12/36402593/mark-cubans-slam-dunk-deal-mavericks-majority-stake-sale-clears-the-net-whats-the-next-play">maintains a minority stake</a> in the NBA's Dallas Mavericks after selling a majority stake to Miriam Adelson, said Warner could lease rights from Diamond on its NBA local rights and grab other regional rights as they expire and overlay the games on TBS for local broadcast.
"This way TBS has most of the USA covered with local games. Fans who have basic cable would get all their local games on a fully distributed network or on a local Bleacher Report stream."
Cuban's suggestion was met with skepticism from LightShed Partners analyst Rich Greenfield.
"Didn't WBD dissolve their three RSNs last year because they did not want to be in the local sports business," Greenfield asked.
Cuban told Greenfield that his idea isn't about RSNs, but rather "programming TBS with local sports."
"They may be able to get an additional carriage fee that would be far less than an RSN carriage ask as well," Cuban added.

Summer League Debut Not Scaring Away Bettors, Here&#8217;s How Much They Could Win</a>
Why It's Important: Cuban's suggestion could be a consideration by Warner Bros. and comes as Diamond Sports Group, which is partially owned by Sinclair Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBGI#NASDAQ">SBGI</a>).
Diamond previously had deals with 15 NBA teams, 11 MLB teams and 11 NHL teams. Among NBA teams, Diamond has rights to the Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons, Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Clippers, Memphis Grizzlies, Miami Heat, Milwaukee Bucks, Minnesota Timberwolves, New Orleans Pelicans, Oklahoma City Thunder, Orlando Magic and San Antonio Spurs.
Coincidentally, Amazon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/01/36662662/amazon-scores-big-with-regional-sports-network-deal-prime-video-to-feature-mlb-nba-nhl-game">recently invested in </a>Diamond Sports Group and is set to be the primary partner for consumers to purchase streaming plans from. Amazon said it would announce details and pricing in the future.
Diamond Sports Group would likely relish the thought of being able to lease out its regional sports rights to Warner Bros.
