About Eye on the Media

Eye on the Media, debuted on Kukla’s Korner in February of 2008, and deals with all the evil, weird and just plain insane things that happen when hockey ventures into the foreign worlds of TV, Radio and News Print. I am a student, and a communications major, in New Jersey, which by association means you can blame me for destroying hockey. I love hockey and wants to hear everything you have to say about the way our game is covered.

Hawks Close to TV Deal

From Teddy Greenstein at The Chicago Tribune:

McDonough is determined to have all 82 Blackhawks games televised next season.

As many as 25-30 could go on free, non-cable TV. WGN-Ch. 9, which carried Hawks games in the 1960s and early ‘70s, and WPWR-Ch. 50 are two possible landing spots.

I’m sure the NHL would enjoy having Kane, Toews, Byfuglien, Sharp and Co. on what is essentially free, national TV on WGN, as the Bulls, White Sox and Cubs already do.

WGN local and WGN national are different feeds, aren’t they?

Well, the Cubs, Sox and Bulls all air on WGN Nationally.
