Blackouts & Local Telecasts[edit]

There is no mention of blackouts here, which is a pretty important historical note. also, the "reverse blackout" in which games which are broadcast on ESPN or NFL network are simulcast on OTA channels in the local markets of the teams involved, is not properly discussed.

I don't see a byline on the previous paragraph. But anyway, two crucial facts (IMO) are missing: first, the home blackout rule unless a game was sold out in advance -- I think that goes back to the first national contract -- and the original practice of having each team's own announcers broadcasting the game separately, even if they were using the same video feed. I'm not sure when that stopped and the network started hiring all the announcers; perhaps it was in '61 when the national contract took effect, but I thought it was a few tears later than that.
