OK, so if the school forces the kids to do after-school janitorial work for free in place of the janitor, that's not not explotation of the kids because the school is saving money by not having to pay the janitor's wages? Also, all media (TV, radio, print, web, etc.) networks are in the business to make money...if ESPN didn't think they'd make advertising money on this show, they surely wouldn't be doing it. It had better affect ESPN's bottom line in a positive way, or some producer's head will roll.
