Beasley Vegas Joins Raider Nation
Before we leave Sin City, it was also announced yesterday that the Oakland (soon-to-be Las Vegas) Raiders have selected Beasley Media Group as the team’s official radio broadcast partner in Las Vegas. Beasley inked a two-year deal as the Las Vegas flagship radio partner for the Raiders. Country KCYE (102.7 The Coyote) and News-Talk KDWN-AM will cover preseason and regular season games beginning with the 2017 season.
Raiders’ President Marc Badain said, “The passion of Raider Nation is unrivaled and we look forward to working with Beasley to bring exclusive and captivating Raiders content and coverage to Southern Nevada.” Brian Beasley, EVP/COO of Beasley Media Group commented, “We are absolutely thrilled to be named the official Las Vegas flagship radio partner of the Raiders. Our five radio properties are the perfect fit as the team makes NFL history with its exciting new move to Las Vegas. The Beasley Media Group team is committed to providing the team and our listeners with the very best sports programming and entertainment experience possible.”
Market Manager Tom Humm remarked, “My brother David and I were born and raised in Las Vegas, and he participated as a quarterback with the Raiders team that won two Super Bowls. It’s an honor to be part of the Beasley Media team bringing the Raiders game broadcasts to the Las Vegas community, while also working with David to build insight and on-air content relating to what it is like to play in the NFL for an iconic Raiders team.” The agreement with Beasley was negotiated by Compass Media Networks, who will continue to exclusively manage, produce and distribute all audio broadcasts of The Raiders.
