NBC had another "Heidi Game" moment, declaring Anna Veith the gold medalist before the race was over and cutting away. OOPS!

I was watching that and had NO idea there were more skiers to go.
The implication was that it was over. What fools.

NBC was in a big rush to get back to a certain gay figure skater
.... priorities, you know.

They said so many times that no one after the last skier they showed had a chance that I thought the rest of the field were from the paraolympics with blind and legless athletes were coming up. I guess it was blind, legless and Czechs.

More accustomed to reporting politics, they just make it up as they go. Unfortunately for them, sports has an objective outcome, unlike elections.

The skiing was broadcast live. They showed the winning skier on tape a few minutes after she had won.

To be fair, all of Big Media’s BEST “reporters” are working overtime to overthrow the President of the United States.

Kind of like how they all declared Hillary the winner before the election.

This has been the worst coverage of an Olympics I have ever seen.

I’m glad that the winner didn’t crash. I hate to see a Czech bounce.

They cacheted a Czech they couldn’t cover.

Not having to watch Bob Costas or Lester Holt or Matt Lauer is a big plus, thought.
