It’s time for everyone’s favorite holiday tradition — CNBC’s annual anonymous media executive predictions!
CNBC spoke with 16 of the most powerful and influential executives in U.S. media, sports and entertainment, who all offered a prediction for the year ahead, under the condition of anonymity so they could speak freely and make bold bets.
This year, we break the forecasts into three categories: M&A predictions, sports predictions and miscellaneous. Before we begin, a few shoutouts from last year’s list. (You can find the full slate here.)
