NBC's Opening Night Coverage Is More Limp Than Olympic, by Tom Shales, Sat. Feb. 9, 2002; Page C01.
A scathing article about the coverage of the opening ceremonies from the
Washington Post. Worth clicking on link to read. Some quotes:
"Couric and Costas managed to mangle what should have been one of the most moving highlights of last night's pageantry. "
"An awesome silence came over the crowd -- but not over the blabbery and jabbery Couric and Costas."
"Costas and Couric yakked away from their little perch"
I know lets all email NBC with ideas for perky Katie to show the viewer how hard it is to ....... . We will have to come up with the most dangerous winter sport something that she could really do some damage on. Remember this is why NBC pays her the big bucks. Then when she takes herself out it will be a Katie free zone. I know I'm bad.
