NFL Eyes Change in TV Policy Over Attendance Drops
Washington AP reports NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle told a House subcommittee that rising ticket declines and the anti blackout law may force a shift from the current television format. He notes the league lost 9 million in revenue for 1974 and 1975 due to lower season ticket sales and warns a regional approach could be dropped if attendance and TV ratings fail to improve. Baseball Commissioner Bowie Kuhn was to testify later as network telecasts increase since 1961.
