Try to look in Disney's 10-K, but I'm not sure if they break up their revenue that way.

Well ESPN makes around $4 per cable/sat subscriber....add it up.

I think its bullshit that I'm forced to pay for channels I don't watch. If I could cut out all the sports and religious channels, my bill would probably be $10 to $15 bucks less a month.

Al la carte FTW.

ESPN is owned by Disney: http://corporate.disney.go.com/

So ask the Mouse.


Edit - Here's their 10-Q http://dolimg.com/investorrelations/webcasts/q2-earnings-2011_kdaijbjdkl2.pdf

But in scanning it, I do not see where Disney break out the revenue on the level of detail you are asking for. The closest I see is what Disney call "Cable Networks", which includes ESPN, ABC FAmily, and the Disney Channels. That number is $1.357 Billion

This is awesome..I was actually looking for revenue, which is 2.826B for Q1 2011, so total revenue for the year is probably about $10b give or take a few billion.
