Momentary Temporal Rant

In an age where much of my news comes from internet news feed and 24-hour dedicated news channels, I just can’t understand why NBC can’t just broadcast their coverage of the Winter Olympics live.  Vancouver and San Diego are in the same time zone ferchristsake – so why does our reception have to be delayed by three hours as it gets routed through New York?  Why should Californians have to try to avoid spoilers for hours before various events just because some East Coast media elites can’t adjust their schedules?  Live means live folks, and if you can’t program a network around breaking news, get out of the breaking news business.
