    As you tune in to NBC right about now, consider: If its Olympics coverage is so bad, why are so many people watching? http://journ.us/P4bOxv

        @Poynter such a flawed premise. People watch because they have to. Not televising the 100 at 5pm on Sunday, waiting until 11pm+ was criminal

        @Poynter The coverage isn't that bad, and we watch because the story lines and drama and poetry of the competition is compelling.

        @Poynter Because bad coverage of #olympics is better than missing it entirely. Though thanks to NBC, I feel I'm missing most of #London2012.
