CBS Radio Requested Orioles Limit Access To Other Stations

CBS Radio Asks Orioles To
Limit Access On Other Stations

CBS Radio/Baltimore Senior VP Bob Philips, whose company is the new Orioles radio rights holder, said that a ban on Orioles management from taking call-in questions on stations not affiliated with the team was “instituted at his organization’s request and is just a matter of a rights-holder getting some extra benefits it paid for,” according to Ray Frager of the Baltimore SUN. Philips: “What we have asked for is to be the focal point of information. The Orioles are just trying to follow some things we asked for in the contract. We’re trying to offer more access.” Philips “compared the change in Orioles policy to what happened after CBS lost the Ravens” to WBAL-AM last season, resulting in WBAL exclusively carrying coach Brian Billick’s post-game news conferences live. But WBAL sports-talk host Steve Davis “didn’t find the issues of news conferences and callers’ questions analogous.” Davis: “It’s not the same” (Baltimore SUN, 2/27).
