Since 2001, two Cleveland radio stations have shared flagship duties for the Cleveland Browns: rock station WMMS (The Buzzard/100.7 FM) and news/talk station WTAM (1100 AM). Jim Donovan, sports director of WKYC Channel 3, is the play-by-play announcer, former Browns offensive tackle Doug Dieken is the color analyst, and WTAM sports anchor/reporter Andre Knott serves as sideline reporter. WTAM morning co-host/sports director Mike Snyder and former Browns quarterback Mike Pagel host the pregame, halftime, and postgame shows. During the preseason and early September games, WTAM will broadcast the Cleveland Indians games while WMMS will broadcast Browns games when both teams play at the same time.
In 2006, preseason telecasts moved to WKYC (with Jim Donovan and Bernie Kosar in the booth, and WKYC weekend sports anchor Dave Chudowski as sideline reporter) from WOIO after a controversy arose over the 911 calls at the drowning death of the team owner's niece (see above). When Donovan does TV, Mike Snyder does the radio play-by-play, and WTAM evening host Bob Frantz handles pregame/halftime/postgame duties.
SportsTime Ohio is the official cable home of the team, and airs numerous weekly Browns related programs.
WJW-TV Channel 8 ("Fox 8") locally televises any regular season games which are nationally broadcast by ESPN or NFL Network.
