On Thursday morning, the Buffalo Bills and WIVB-TV announced a new multi-year extension that will keep the station as the team\u2019s official television broadcast partner. The agreement continues a relationship that has connected Bills fans throughout much of New York with preseason football, game-day coverage, and exclusive team programming for decades.<\/p>\n
WIVB-TV will continue broadcasting Bills preseason games while also producing pregame and postgame coverage, special team programming, and Bills Kickoff Live. WIVB\u2019s General Manager Julie Pruett also noted that the new agreement extends the partnership for another five years while expanding Bills programming into additional markets throughout New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont through Nexstar Media Group stations.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur continuing partnership with WIVB-TV is an important part of our commitment to delivering a best-in-class experience to Bills fans across Western New York and beyond,\u201d Bills Chief Commercial Officer Jason Hartlund said in the team\u2019s announcement. \u201cAs we embark on an exciting new era in Highmark Stadium, we are thrilled to extend our long-standing relationship with WIVB.\u201d<\/p>\n
As the Bills enter one of the most anticipated seasons in franchise history as they move into their new stadium, fans can expect the same familiar tv \u201chome\u201d for preseason football and year-round coverage to remain in place for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Thursday morning, the Buffalo Bills and WIVB-TV announced a new multi-year extension that will keep the station…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":495363,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[247862,156,2294,111,139,69,437],"class_list":["post-495362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-buffalo-bills-news","tag-entertainment","tag-general","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495362\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/495363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
