The point of his rant was that women are blaming men for women's sports failing. So, yes, his entire fracking point was that it absolutely DOES matter who is buying tickets. And a comedian using exaggeration for effect? Who ever heard of such a thing!!! I mean, everyone except for you I guess.

As I'm sure you'll remember from the halcyon days when liberals hung on every word from the lips of Jon Stewart, comedians should not be confused with journalists.  Many liberal viewers couldn't tell the difference between the true parts of Stewart's rants and the exaggerations, and that was bad for everyone. 

FWIW, I have never heard any female athlete blame men in general for the low salaries most of them get.  I've heard informed ones ask for more fan support from all genders,  and I've heard uninformed ones say that the male leagues just need to split the wealth 50/50.  Ive heard them blame male owners and male athletes, not male fans.
