Answer 11

i live on the west coast in san diego and the news shows what happened before nbc shows it "live". i stay up after 12am and nbc says it's live. i am watching track and field right now. i hate it when the peolpe on the east coast give away the spoiler of the event before we west coasters watch it.

Answer 12

Because they want high ratings and want to make money off commercials. In one word: Greed

Answer 13

Forrealz.

I was so pissed off yesterday. I was bored...so I logged on yahoo answers (an hour before Phelps swam the 100M Butterfly) and I'm like always on the Olympics Section, and people to began to say how Phelps won his 7th gold medal. I was looking forward to watching it on television 'LIVE' on NBC... and I'm totally proud of him, but some people just have to spoil it for West Coasters. Geez.
