NFL Local Sports Media- Detroit Lions

August 18, 2008 | by Keith | Categories Local NFL Sports Media |

Off to the Motor City to take a look at the local media contingent that follows the Detroit Lions…

Newspaper- Detroit is primarily a two paper town, sharing one owner with two editorial staffs. The Detroit Free Press has a fairly well laid out online sports section which includes content dedicated to the Lions. What appears a little strange is that instead of one blog for the Lions, each reporter has his or her individual blog where they report on the team.

The Detroit News also has a good layout for its sports section. Its’ Lions-specific page also mixes in other news from around the NFL. Beat reporter Mike O’Hara keeps readers up to date on the paper’s Lions Blog.

Sports Radio- WYXT serves as the flagship in the Lions Radio Network. Dan Miller handles play-by-play with Jim Brandstatter on analysis. You can also talk Lions on WDFN.

Television- WDIV, WJBK, WXYZ, and WWJ handles the local television coverage of the Lions.

Blogs- Looking for independent Lions blogs? Some of them include Pride of Detroit, Detroit Lions Blog, SideLion Report, and Lions Locker.
