Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) re-introduced a bill Tuesday to ensure that all residents of Wisconsin can watch the Green Bay Packers on television. The bill, dubbed the Go Pack Go Act, would affect 13 counties and almost 415,000 people that are part of television markets based in other states.
One of the NFL’s most storied franchises, the Green Bay Packers, said it launched a new free connected TV streaming app. The app gives on-demand content about the team to fans via their television screens and is available on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and Roku devices.

Many have been shopping for antennas and, if people have older TVs, digital TV converter boxes, so they can watch NBC affiliate WTMJ Milwaukee over the air.
