These are benefit to professors reputation, publicity of universities and public gaining knowledge about from real experts. However, the speaker disagrees by stating several cons about professors appearing on TV programs and elaborates on it.

On benefits to professors, the passage says that professors acquire good reputation as academic scholars, the speaker counters it by stating some other opinion. He says that professors appearing on TV tend to form a narrative among fellows that they are entertainers and not serious educators. Also, they do not get invites for conferences and money for their researches if they appear on TV.
