KSHB, KMCI reach agreement to become official broadcast television home of the Kansas City Chiefs KSHB-TV, Kansas City’s 41 Action News Station, and KMCI-TV, 38 The Spot, announced an agreement today with the Kansas City Chiefs to become the team’s official broadcast television partner.

The Chiefs have essentially farted in the face of KCTV-5
|
41 has shitty reception for all that don't have cable.
|
The Chiefs have put a finger in the butt of KCTV-5.

I saw Tyreek retweeted this. **** KCTV5.

I don't know how the TV stuff works, but I assumed they were stuck with KCTV5 and (until she's fired) Angie due to NFL agreements with the networks. I notice that the article says that the new stations will broadcast "Chiefs games that are broadcast on NBC", so does that mean that most games will still be on KCTV5 and (until she's fired) Angie's station? Does this really mean that they're just moving all their pre-game stuff there?
Sorry, I'm not local, so I don't know the players and stations other than knowing that KCTV5 is evil and that Angie should be fired. |
Nice Tyreek retweet...

These sorts of things don't just happen. It takes months/years of talk behind the scenes and certainly many conversations and negotiations in that time.
Makes you wonder if the KCTV5 hit pieces were BECAUSE they knew they were losing their TV contract. |

Locally, KCTV5 carried 65TPT productions, the Chiefs TV network that produces the Preseason games and stuff like "The Franchise" and "the Locker Room" etc. The stuff with Mitch and BJ. Now, instead of KCTV5 having that programming, it will be on channel 41. |
Home of everything chiefs! Except for, you know, the actual games.
Kind of like, 'hey guys, there's this marathon. I won the stretch beforehand!' Am curious to see how the new TV deal goes in 2022, though. Disney is probably going to come up with something nuts. |
This is all about getting the most money for preseason games. The only thing the Chiefs did to KCTV was save them over a million dollars a year on something that loses money for the station. As for the title...remember 810 is the official broadcast partner of the Chiefs yet 101 carries the games.

It's a good start, and it sounds like all the Chiefs can really do to rid themselves of the Angie attack pseudojournalism. |

In general sports broadcasting is not a profit center to the broadcaster. You try to use it as a loss leader for the rest of your business plan. Think about it...in the past 20-years Chiefs preseason has been on all four local affiliates at one time or another, and it's not because it's a "hot property". |
