I didn’t watch the games, but I did hear that they had the commentator for Men’s Figure Skating dressed in a way that would make gay pride parade marchers blush.
So yea, I can see why the ratings took a dive. But nice of NBC to bail out South Korea on this!

Always nice to wake up to news of trouble in our enemy’s tent.

Looking at the comments above, I guess I’m bit late to the party.

Their problem is not enough focus on gays, communists, women athletes or curling.

Anecdotal yes, but the Kehoes didn’t watch any of it.

Yeah and they started bashing the hell out of Pence when he showed up and then CNN started praising the sister of Kim Jung Un, and they wonder why people aren't watching? Look at this crap. Can you imagine what the family of Otto Warmbier thinks of this? She's "stealing the show"? How? Just because she is there?

The highlights were the US Men’s curling team and Chloe’s snowboarding. Otherwise, it was a “cram homosexuality in your face” which is, of course, a big turnoff to normal people.

It is a racket. The politicians and their union buddies make millions off of the contracts and bribes (along with the IOC) and when the facilities fall into disrepair they can blame it on someone else (racism usually)

You mean 2 1/2 weeks of “Will and Grace” is not a big draw? Somebody should alert Hollywood, so they can stop making narrowcast productions that produce disappointing numbers.

Boston dropped out of their 2020 or 2024 Olympic bid, too.
It's one of the worst "investments" any government can make -- which is why most Olympic games for the foreseeable future will be held in Third World dumps and in countries run by totalitarian regimes.

Exactly. The TV folks are in love with themselves. Tiresome productions when what I wanted to see was the competition.
