Also I’d be willing to bet that CBS, who is hot to cut costs these days, told Nate he’s going to do this in addition to letting Oprah’s bestie boss him around every morning for the same price.

Have seen a few people asking why Nate Burleson is CBS March Madness studio host. Ernie Johnson asked to step back from some of the dates in the role. CBS is testing to see if Burleson could eventually replace James Brown as NFL Today host.

@algonasportsguy I agree. It’s much better than their TV product. I have to wonder if anyone will even attempt to fill this void. This is the stuff that radio should be offering. Give people content that’s convenient, entertaining, and informative to listen to while driving.
English
@jacojas We literally just switched to CBS Radio News in January because ABC wanted to charge us a ridiculous amount each month. It's a good product, wishing it wasn't going away.
English
Me. Top of the hour news is something every station should offer. Full service programming would actually help keep radio relevant. Sadly too many big corporate owners don’t care to invest in the type of programming to grow time spent listening.

I know there's immense sadness about CBS News Radio and it is an American media institution, but I feel the need to ask the uncomfortable question: When was the last time anyone listened to CBS News Radio in their car?

High Point student radio call of the game is what it is all about

Corporate consolidation has NEVER empowered local broadcasters. Never. Local radio in major markets are the prime example.

FCC Empowers Local Broadcast TV Stations Agency approval of Nexstar - TEGNA TV station deal, with conditions committed to by Nexstar, promotes FCC's media policy goals of localism, diversity, and competition. Read more 🧵⬇️

Click bait. CBS will do whatever it takes to keep the NFL.
Drew Lerner@Drewbydoobydoo
Unlike its other four partners (Fox, NBC, ESPN, Amazon), who are locked in 'til 2029/30, the NFL can exit its CBS deal anytime before Summer '27 via the change-of-ownership clause triggered by Skydance buying Paramount last year If negotiations go south, the NFL can ditch CBS ⤵️

With everyone stuck at home today for Snowmageddon it should be a busy day here for people to share their gripes about the state boys basketball tournament not being played this week.
English
@sportsdr44 Maybe you guys could play in Des Moines? Kinda like how the Star Tribune is now an Iowa publication. 😝
English
@jacojas Have been telling myself I wouldn’t post about it. But….
Timberwolves are home Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday.
Wild are home Thursday and Saturday.
St. Thomas has a beautiful new building but it’s not big enough.
English
@sportsdr44 They don’t have anywhere else to play games? Don’t you guys play games at high schools or small colleges until the finals? Or is that just football?

@jacojas In case Gopher women’s basketball was selected to host the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament. They were. Can’t imagine the angst if they hadn’t.

Good luck Fran! Wish nothing but the best for this guy.

Well, well, well…what do we have here? Fran McCaffery (and Penn), 40 minutes away from making history.

The number one TV program the week of March 2-8 was ABC’s World News Tonight at 8.9 million viewers. That was the M-F average. Number 5 was NBC Nightly News for the week at 6.8 million. Top show on Fox News got 4.8 million. Most Americans still trust broadcast news the most.

Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not. And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters. The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves. It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news. When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen. Time for change!

@RussIowa Yes. Essentially you could do the TV thing like the NBA or NFL does. Multiple players involved. Divvy it up.
English
@jacojas They really should just have a summit where conferences and networks sit down and realign (or un-realign in a way) and reset the grant of rights agreements. Across the country. One fell swoop.
No conference gains $, no conference loses $ from what they already had.
English
Oh shucks, the schools that blew up their conference with natural rivals for cash now discover it sucks traveling at least half way across the country for most games in their new conference. They f’d around and now found out. Boo hoo

Can the Big Ten reimagine a basketball schedule that works for everyone? It’s doubtful, but the league and its coaches are debating different ideas. Among them include 3 or 4-game road trips and shifting more games into December. @TheAthletic nytimes.com/athletic/71170…

This ADM-Storm Lake game is an all time classic!
