The BIGGEST BROADCASTING CONTROVERSY of the 1981 NFL Season | Redskins @ Bears (1981)

Entering week 6 of the 1981 NFL season between the Washington Redskins and the Chicago Bears, the CBS affiliate in Richmond, Virginia, WTVR Channel 6, decided not to air the game, even though Washington was the de facto home team, and had been forever. And the way that they went about it was unbelievably slimy and misleading, to the point where the outrage was so bad that one week later, the station immediately reversed course.
