We have a channel for just about everything else, why not the Olympics too.
The Olympics organizations pernicious scum.
Thanks for your comments guys. NBC contacted us today to remind us of their current Olympic offering, TimeWarner channel 226 (basic digital), which has been running for 13 months. But the purpose of this story is to ask whether or not public access to the Olympics should be limited exclusively through the channels that NBC provides? Can there, should there be alternatives?
