You
can tell the Olympics are getting closer by the number of related stories popping
up on NBC Nightly News and the Today Show.
Ditto NBC Channel 5 in Chicago. I
have a sneaking suspicion that ABC and CBS don’t care nearly as much about Rio,
except maybe to do stories about the Zika virus, crime in Rio and polluted
waterways. Gosh, I bet those won’t be
peaking come late July.
And
talk about bad luck. NBC had to do a
story Friday on the Russian track and field team being banned from
participating. It seems that members
wanted to follow in the footsteps of Mark McGwire and Barry Bonds, only they
got caught. Well, I’m sure the good
folks at NBC will put a good spin on it, maybe with Bob Costas getting all
mock-serious when staring into the camera.
Yeah, I bet that’s what they’ll do.
