Why does no Binghamton station have the Westwood One Sports Package?

I find it interesting that no Binghamton station has the Westwood One sports package. Usually the Sunday/Monday night football games are hot comodities in most markets not to mention the NFL Playoffs and the Super Bowl as well as their preview program and the NFL Now with Mike Francesa. Just a curiousity, I think WENE would most profit from the package, although WNBF or WYOS couldnt go wrong with it.

Unfortunately, I think it's clear sticking any money into WENE is not on CC's agenda. The only reason they have Fox is because it's easy, it's in the family. Is it the best product? Helllllllll no. ESPN kicks it's arse. As for the reason for not carrying Westwood One? Nothing can interfere with the Yankees, which I think is a bit of a cop out.

I will say this...some of the CC brands are sounding alot better lately. Wonder why?
