Last week we told you about how ESPN Radio and The Fox Sports Network planned to cover the game between Denver and Seattle. Today we get details from CBS and Westwood One. Beginning today, CBS's morning show will be on-site in New York City interviewing athletes, coaches, former players and celebrities. Westwood One, which carries the game, will feature a full schedule of Game Day programming leading up to kickoff of Super Bowl XLVIII. WestwoodOne?s live game coverage features Kevin Harlan, handling the play-by-play duties for the Super Bowl for the fourth straight year, and Boomer Esiason, serving as the color analyst?his 14th consecutive with the network.
Director, Programming, CBS Sports Radio Eric Spitz says, ?With the Super Bowl, the premier sporting event in our country, happening right in our back yard, there was no doubt that CBS Sports Radio would go wall-to-wall covering all of the pre-game stories, news, and interviews. If you can?t make it to the big game, CBS Sports Radio?s renowned personalities will bring all of the live action and excitement preceding the game, allowing listeners across the nation to feel like they are in New York.?
Cumulus CEO Lew Dickey said, "The great tradition of WestwoodOne bringing Super Bowl week to millions of Americans is a highlight of the year. We're excited to partner with the NFL and the 700+ radio stations nationwide that will carry our exclusive programming all week."
