worldwide news outlets, shut the hell up
Thursday, Aug 19 2004 | 0 comments

So far, every day this week I have had Olympic results spoiled for me. Spending the majority of the day on the internet, I inevitably end up on some news page or portal which screams "Phelps Wins Gold!", or "Hamm Wins Gold!". Brianne watched a news clip in which they went around and interviewed people, asking them if they would like to hear Olympic results as they happen, or watch them on TV time-delayed. 100% of people would like to watch the events live. With the exception of NBC, who has a vested interest in keeping the results quiet, everyone else just wants to go and blab their fat mouth. So just shut the hell up. You are taking all of the fun out of the games.
