Nexstar has announced Broadcast Rights for the Las Vegas Raiders

https://tvnewscheck.com/article/top-news/249173/nexstar-lands-las-vegas-raiders-pre-season-rights/

Its not just KLAS-TV the Nexstar Owned station in Las Vegas that has announced broadcast rights for the Raiders via CBS Sports.

Even KRON and KTLA ( the former home cities of the Raiders ) also have broadcast rights to the Raiders preseason games.


Nexstar Broadcasting and the National Football League’s Las Vegas Raiders, today announced they have reached an exclusive agreement on a content partnership and broadcast rights that will deliver Raiders’ pre-season football games and a variety of related programming to five Nexstar television markets across three states, reaching more than 9 million television households.

The multi-year agreement makes KTLA Los Angeles, KRON San Francisco, KTVX Salt Lake City, KHON Honolulu and KGET Bakersfield, Calif., the “Official Home of the Raiders” in their respective markets, with rights to air Raiders’ pre-season games; The Silver and Black Show, an annual NFL draft special; as well as a special preview of the upcoming season and regular post-game programming throughout the regular season. The broadcasts kicked off in April with an hour-long 2020 NFL pre-draft special.
 
I'm surprised KSEE/KGPE (Fresno) and KTXL (Sacramento) isn't listed despite (a) being owned by Nexstar and (b) being closer to Vegas than San Francisco or Los Angeles (unless Fresno and Sacramento were heavily 49ers towns when the Raiders were in Oakland). Reno gets screwed (for now) as they don't have a Nexstar station.

Maybe you have to live in CA to feel it, but Nevada is almost a separate country to the state that has the world's 13th largest economy (or whatever it is that Newsom keeps telling us).

Los Angeles is an odd pick to broadcast Raiders games given that the city now has two NFL Teams such as the Rams and Chargers unless the Fox and CBS O&O's the area beat nexstar to Broadcast Rights for preseason games for Rams and Chargers games in the Los Angeles DMA.

Not happening, in fact, the Rams and Chargers (unofficially) made a swap of "flagship" stations during this offseason; KABC will now be the Rams' preseason home (previously had the Chargers' preseason games the past three seasons), while KCBS once again carries Chargers preseason, this time as the flagship station. They previously aired Chargers preseason games back when they were still in San Diego. Both of those moves were made just after the recent Super Bowl.

Thanks I knew at this point the Raiders may not have any relevance to current Los Angeles NFL fans though given that its been 25 years since the Raiders was in Los Angeles.
I figured the Rams and Chargers would have more relevance to fans today though.
