News Summary:

On March 20, 2026, President Trump signed an executive order to preserve the Army-Navy Game’s traditional standalone broadcast window. The order established a government policy that no college football game, including College Football Playoff games, should directly conflict with the Army-Navy game, a move that Paramount+ may benefit from. Previously, on March 19, discussions arose regarding the potential benefits of March Madness utilizing more than one broadcast partner, noting the national attention the tournament captures. Earlier the same day, CBS Sports expanded its campus-production model by utilizing the University of Cincinnati’s control room and staff for two national Big 12 men’s basketball broadcasts, increasing its participation in the conference's shift towards campus-based production. This follows the March 8 recognition of Jenna McKeon, Senior Director of Remote Technical Operations at CBS Sports, as an SVG All-Star for her role in coordinating technical operations for major broadcasts such as the Super Bowl and Final Four.
