Federal SB5561 protects the exclusive broadcast window of the Army-Navy college football game.
Federal SB5561 amends the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 to protect the exclusive broadcast window of the Army-Navy college football game. It prohibits any person from sponsoring, telecasting, or authorizing the telecast of any postseason intercollegiate football contest during the protected broadcast window. This window begins one hour before the scheduled kickoff and ends 30 minutes after the official conclusion of the telecast of the annual Army-Navy game, which occurs on the second Saturday in December.
