Interesting factoid, but some press have agreed to intentional latency as a security feature around certain events and dignitaries. The theory being that a sniper or drone operator cannot use the "live TV" footage to know their exact position.
In some cases international viewers may see the "live" footage before local ones.

A sniper needs eyes on, a drone operator probably has live video from the drone. I don't see how a TV delay would have any effect.
