The National Football League television blackout policies are the strictest among the four major professional sports leagues in North America. From 1973 through 2014, the NFL maintained a blackout policy that stated that a home game cannot be televised in the team's local market if 85 percent of the tickets are not sold out 72 hours prior to its start time. This makes the NFL the only major professional sports league in the US that requires teams to sell out tickets in order to broadcast a game on television locally. Although nationally televised games in the other leagues are often blacked out on the national networks on which the game is airing in the local markets of the participating teams, they can still be seen on the local broadcast television station or regional sports network that

  • The National Football League television blackout policies are the strictest among the four major professional sports leagues in North America. From 1973 through 2014, the NFL maintained a blackout policy that stated that a home game cannot be televised in the team's local market if 85 percent of the tickets are not sold out 72 hours prior to its start time. This makes the NFL the only major professional sports league in the US that requires teams to sell out tickets in order to broadcast a game on television locally. Although nationally televised games in the other leagues are often blacked out on the national networks on which the game is airing in the local markets of the participating teams, they can still be seen on the local broadcast television station or regional sports network that normally holds their local/regional broadcast rights. The league blackout policy has been suspended on a year-to-year basis since 2015. Furthermore, the NFL is the only league that imposes an anti-siphoning rule in all teams' local markets: the NFL sells syndication rights of each team's Thursday and Monday night games to a local over-the-air station in each local market. The respective cable station must be blacked out when that team is playing the said game. (en)
  • Les politiques de black-out télévisuel de la NFL (National Football League) sont les plus strictes parmi les quatre grandes ligues sportives professionnelles d'Amérique du Nord. De 1973 à 2014, la NFL a maintenu une politique de black-out qui stipulait qu'un match à domicile ne pouvait être télévisé sur le marché local de l'équipe si 85 % des billets n'étaient pas vendus 72 heures avant le début du match. Cela fait de la NFL la seule grande ligue de sport professionnel aux États-Unis qui exige des équipes qu'elles vendent leurs billets pour pouvoir diffuser un match à la télévision locale. La politique de black-out de la ligue a été suspendue d'année en année depuis 2015. En outre, la NFL est la seule ligue qui impose une règle anti-siphonnage sur les marchés locaux de toutes les équipes : la NFL vend les droits de syndication des matchs du jeudi et du lundi soir de chaque équipe à une station locale de diffusion en direct sur chaque marché local. La chaîne câblée concernée doit être mise hors service lorsque l'équipe joue le match en question. (fr)
