Worst...Olympics...ever...
Worst Olympics ever.
Clearly the IOC and broadcast networks genuinely didn’t understand just how far we have moved.
ABC Newsradio (and all ABC radio from what I can tell) internet feeds are banned internationally because of “The Olympics broadcast agreement” Try using it from TuneIn radio app, and the droning voice repeating itself is enough to make me dirty on the Olympics in general.
Despicable from an event that is supposed to be about a community of nations coming together in peace, not a cartel of companies wringing every last dollar from an increasingly pissed off populace. Check out NBC’s fan page for a steady stream of disgruntled punters. https://www.facebook.com/nbc if you think we are alone.
The last gasps of a dying business model. One can only hope.
It's ok to get sponsorship to do what you love doing. It's another for the Olympics to be ABOUT sponsorship. For shame IOC. For shame.
