I was browsing the website to see where I could watch the game tonight in the Louisville viewing area, and the Bengals state it can be seen on WDRB 41 in Louisville. But that is not correct as they are carrying the Indy Colts game.
If I remember correctly, the Bengals website said the same thing last year about WDRB 41, but they never carried any games. I phoned the station and they said they quit carrying Bengal games.
Come on! Get the facts straight so we know where we can watch the Bengals and not those 'Indy Dopes'.

The information on the web site is accurate. Last night was an isolated occurence in which the station pre-empted the Bengals broadcast in favor of the national game on FOX. We were not informed they were doing this until yesterday evening. The station did move the Bengals game to Channel 58 and ran a crawl at the bottom of the national game giving the channel location of the Bengals broadcast. The person at the station you spoke with should have informed you of this information.
The other two preseason games (Aug. 18 vs. New Orleans and Aug. 31 vs. Indy) will be shown on Ch. 41. The other preseason game - Aug. 27 vs. Atlanta - is an ESPN broadcast.

Thanks. That makes more sense than what I was told by some phone operator at the station. But shame on WDRB-41 for preempting the Bengals!
