The main reason all spurred from, like everything, the way people consume media is far different and ratings are down for everything. And with sports specifically, shit like YouTube and clips online in general have made shows like SportsCenter obsolete. You no longer need to watch highlight shows when anyone can access any highlight at any time on their phone. They then doubled down on the personalities over authenticity due to the popularity of First Take, specifically circa Tebow era when Skip went full on troll mode. And people eventually got tired of straight characters all the time.

Shit like including politics, including WWE and eGaming, and other similar things was clearly an attempt to drive up ratings, but they weren't the issue that had people stop watching.
