When live coverage isnt live
June 16th, 2006 by Doogs
Nice one Eddie. Nine will only show the 2nd and 3rd rounds of the US Open golf live, favouring the cheesy, fake Today Show with ‘live crosses’ to the golf. Pay TV will take up the coverage of the 1st and 4th rounds.
Will this change if one of the Aussies is making a charge down the final nine holes on Monday morning.
Id rather be watching Richard Wilkins suck up to some B-Grade celebrity myself!
Take a leaf from SBS, if you have the rights to show the whole event live, show the whole event live. SBS showed the whole of the Ashes, they show every game of the World Cup and will show all of the Tour d’France.
