List of Green Bay Packers broadcasters

The Green Bay Packers are unique in having their market area cover two media markets, both Green Bay and Milwaukee, and blackout policies for the team apply within both areas, though they rarely come into effect due to strong home attendance and popularity.

The team manages its television and radio rights in-house, with the radio flagships being WRNW (97.3 FM) in Milwaukee, and WIXX (101.1). Wayne Larrivee is the play-by-play announcer and Larry McCarren is the color analyst.[1] Larrivee joined the team after many years as the Chicago Bears' announcer. Jim Irwin and Max McGee were the longtime radio announcers before Larrivee and McCarren.

The team contracts CBS Sports to produce its preseason and Family Night scrimmage broadcasts. The TV play-by-play announcer, Kevin Harlan, is the son of former Packers president Bob Harlan, with former Packer John Kuhn providing color commentary. The team's network is headed up by two stations owned by the E. W. Scripps Company in Milwaukee and Green Bay, with other stations throughout the state, the Midwest and Alaska and Hawaii as part of the team's television network.
