Pressure Builds On NBC To Explain Why It's Ruining The Olympics
- mark_l_watson 17y agoGreat point about lack of realtime coverage. Usually my wife and I postpone normal life an enjoy the Olympics 24x7 (almost :-) In the past, the non-realtime coverage would have been awful. However, since I have less free time right now (consulting and writing a book), recording the material on a DVR and watching it a little later to skip the commercials works very well for us. It is pain to avoid any news at all so we don't know results as we watch the recordings.

- 4chan4ever 17y agoI agree. As a rule, if a site contains those pesky double-underlined links that display "contextually relevant" advertising on HOVER, I won't read the article. That said, nobody really gives NBC much credence these days. Another big media outfit on its way out -- for exactly this sort of stupid behavior with regard to coverage. And Bob Costas, hate to say it, has never been "genuine". He's the biggest schmooze in the business. Always has been.
