Here's the broadcast team for the new women's hockey franchise. This looks like a time buy for the team and selling the spots on a revenue share.
"I am no longer at Komo 4." Thanks. Longtime Weather Anchor Rebecca Stevenson confirms that she left the station just before Christmas. Her last Facebook posts are 12/17. She has the Seattle station Quintafecta, having worked at the old NWCN, KING, KIRO, KCPQ and KOMO. Looks like her decision. Wants a new chapter. She was doing mainly weekend evenings for KOMO. Perhaps Stella Sun will move there. She has been sharing weekend mornings with Theron Zahn.
If there is one place this could work, it's Seattle.
ReplyDeleteThe league is producing all the broadcasts and these are all streaming on YouTube. So the broadcast Seattle viewers saw was the same one as the Vancouver folks got - and the announcers were Vancouver-based (TSN sports network in Canada carried the game up north). The league does have contracts with some RSN's around the United States for games but yes, most likely this is a time buy setup. Mike is right though, if there is one place it can work for the team to make money on a rights fee it would be Seattle
ReplyDeleteSpot on, Mr. Workman. When the league spends the money to produce the games, et al, and likely split some revenue, it can be the proverbial win-win-win Than for Foz 13. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.
ReplyDeleteOf course. The PWHL has a full webpage devoted to their TV setup: https://www.thepwhl.com/en/where-to-watch. You will notice that with the Canadian teams those teams are getting full network coverage whereas down here there is no national TV partner for the league and they are instead working with RSN's and a collection of local OTA's such as Fox13+ and OTA RSN's.
