Panthers/Giants coverage

C

I know this big game is tonight, Panthers/Giants, and they have been covering it a lot even in Charleston on the news. How is the coverage of the Panthers on Charlotte radio/TV now?
 
WBT does a bang up job of covering the Panthers. WRFX had them for a few years, but I don't think the coverage was half as good when it was on there. All the TV stations do a great job with the Panthers, and it seems like everyone one of the big 4 affiliates tries to be the official station of the Panthers. I know WBTV and WCCB have been flagships on the TV side. I can't remember if WCNC or WSOC has been the flagship on the TV side.
 
BT's coverage is the best by far, as it should be.
Panthers never really fit at WRFX.

I liked how WCNC ch. 36 made a big deal of being live at giants stadium for the game, then just did the show in front of the live truck.
 
WCNC airs eSPN games.

I have a question: should radio affiliates be playing Fox music during commercials advertising their coverage of the Panthers and listing their sponsors?

I know it's the music fans hear the most if they watch on TV. Only the games against AFC teams (I think the road team determines the network) are on CBS, and then there are the occasional ESPN or NBC games.
