TL;DR Summary

President Trump says he plans to sign an executive order to create an exclusive four-hour broadcast window for the Army–Navy football game, aiming to shield the annual matchup from competing college games and large TV deals. The move appears to benefit CBS (Paramount) which holds the rights through 2038, but it’s unclear how such an order would be enforced given FCC jurisdiction and antitrust considerations. The pledge follows his attendance at the latest Army–Navy game and signals continued presidential involvement in media scheduling and licensing issues.
