BBC Journalist and blogger Stuart Hughes says:
The Olympics were a huge success for NBC.200 million viewers. A "halo
effect" that boosted other channels and programmes. An estimated
$60-70 million profit (Source: Hollywood Reporter) Before the Games started,
NBC boast
ed of the depth and breadth of its coverage.1210 hours of
events.103 commentators. 28 Olympians on the commentary team. A week
from now, I'll be heading back to Athens for Greece's second
remarkable major sporting event of the year. The Paraly
mpics will boast:4000 athletes. 140 countries represented.525
gold medals at stake. 19 sports. There will be no American TV coverage of the
Paralympics. Let me repeat that. There will be NO AMERICAN TV
COVERAGE OF THE PARALYMPICS. Not one hour of live coverage.
Not one commentator. Not one Olympian on the commentary team. Nothing.
This at the same time that a record number of journalists are
preparing to cover the Paralympics.
