Is it just my misperception, or is the NBC coverage of the Olympics on TV less, in both air time and depth of coverage, than in the past? While I understand that they give far more attention to US athletes than those for other countries, it also seems as if they are only showing highlights of the events, rather than showing all of the competitors with beginning to end coverage of the events. I thought their coverage of previous Olympics involved all of their cable channels. This time around, I only see 3 of their channels broadcasting Olympic coverage and then for only part of the day. Or, is it that there is just less coverage of the winter games compared to the summer games?
I also wonder if NBC is assuming that anyone wanting more in depth coverage will watch online streaming rather than waiting for the tv coverage.
