The article from Forbes, published on March 27, 2025, discusses CBS Sports' acquisition of the U.S. Open Cup broadcasting rights, marking a significant expansion in their soccer coverage. This deal allows CBS to broadcast the oldest ongoing national soccer competition in the United States, which includes teams from various levels of American soccer, from amateur to professional. The move is seen as part of CBS's broader strategy to enhance its soccer portfolio, especially following their successful coverage of other soccer events. The article speculates on whether this could lead to CBS securing rights to Major League Soccer (MLS) games, given the network's growing investment in soccer and the potential for synergy between the U.S. Open Cup and MLS broadcasts. This development could potentially reshape soccer broadcasting rights in the U.S., offering fans more comprehensive coverage of the sport.
