Oh come on, in this day of age, many people around the world watched it live, just like Americans. Here I sit in Baghdad and I get many of the channels I have on my TV back home from satellite available all over the middle east. Including channels and shows we’re so proud for the world to see about us, like Springer, Cheaters, etc.....It doesn’t have to be reported on their news anymore...they get it live. Guess it’d be asking too much for them to show equally the O’s screwups...not gonna happen though.

Yes, but is it voiced over live, as it airs, in the local language (Arabic), or subtitled (in Arabic)? What I am getting at is that the speed by which it made it into the foreign press in their languages was startling (Spiegel, and others in this case). Of course, I realize you can get this stuff just about everywhere except North Korea (where you would be shot for watching American TV unless you were in the Public Security Bureau practicing English for your overseas agents to handle more efficiently).

أتمنى لك يوماً سعيداً Stay safe.
