my brother who watches ABC News said the Olympics coverage is appaling. He said they will show the beginning of a race and then the end of it in photo stills. He say he may give up watching the ABC News.
As Media Watch explained non-rights broadcasters are limited in how they can cover.
why are 7 turning the olympics into a version of “Womens Day”
More back stories than sporting events.
please enough!!
This is why I am mainly streaming on the other channels,avoids all that crap although it can be delayed by up to 45 seconds for events.
Yeah I noticed the cameras are in the homes of the Olympians talking to family.
Poor numbers for ‘The Good Fight’ but it’s very much an acquired taste these days
The Good Fight is one of those shows though they use as an example where overnight only tells a part of the story. Through catch up, it ratings seems to triple.
Last week it’s consolidated easily outdated it’s overnight and its online catch seems to do well too.
