Olympics: PT/MT Daytime Goes Live This Weekend (Late Change!)

J

Joe_Capitano

At least for Saturday, NBC is giving the left coast a break (point). Here in Western Washington it was announced on tonight's late news that Saturday's coverage will start at 6 AM PT/7 AM MT rather than being delayed up to 3 hours.

I'm presuming Sunday will be following the same plan seeing as the listings posted to KING5.com (and 9NEWS.com for MT) indicate that. In any event, this is exactly what NBC should have done from the start - at least on weekends.
 
A bit too late to offer an olive branch to the West Coast after repeatedly giving us the middle finger countless times over and over again.
 
Robnoxious: Truthfully, they should have done this from the start, but be glad they're doing this at all. Ebersol wouldn't have done this.

asumanga: Checking the listings on KNHL's joint website, the answer is yes. Today's show started at 3 AM Local, The Women's Marathon will air overnight at 1 AM Local, with everything else to follow.

I would say yes to Alaska, as they usually get their NBC programming from the Pacific feed and, at least for prime time, follow the Central Time schedule.
 
Is this true in Phoenix? The Olympics start at 5am on our NBC affiliate. Don't tell me 12 is being a bonehead...

It's the Anchorage stations that follow the Central Time; Fairbanks', Eastern Time.
