[QUOTE="CaliforniaCheez, post: 58322, member: 167"] Here is some more bad news along those lines(pun intended). Pro Football Talk article excerpt In a move that is drawing barely a blip given the various other developments coming out of the ownership meetings in Florida, the NFL has decided to ban from the sidelines of all games the various local television stations that typically send a guy with a camera to the stadium. The move, according to the Detroit News, was intended by the NFL to "protect its property rights and remove some of the congestion on the sidelines." Some of our contacts in the media view it differently. "This greatly affects us and dozens of stations around the country who do numerous news shows, talk shows, etc.," said one industry source. "If you look on the sidelines of NFL games, there are probably 30 to 50 of those local videographers shooting. . . . Looks like the NFL Network is turning into the behemoth we all feared." We agree. Frankly, we don't buy the notion that the local cameras add to any congestion or confusion. Instead, we think that this is all about limiting the available images of the National Football League's primary product, giving only NFL Films and the NFL Network the ability to supplement the shots generated by the television coverage of each game.
