On second thought


Or whichever thought this is, I am going to shift the blame for the lack of quality of Olympics coverage.

It’s not the money it’s the technology.

Back when instant replay was cutting edge and getting 5 or 6 hours of coverage a day was a major accomplishment there was no thought given to this kind of hack editing of things.  The focus had to be on just getting the event broadcast.

These days they can easily jump back and forth between events and between different recordings or between live and recorded if that comes up.  The temptation is probably too much to resist.
