Detroit Lions and Ford Field have a new fee they will be charging the media that attend Lions games this season. $150 per game surcharge for use of an Ethernet cable. The Lions will offer free Wi-Fi however journalist have complained about the reliability of the service. The new age of media requires journalist to be constantly connected so many opt for Ethernet cable. Going to be an expensive season for beat writers and others cover Lions games.
