Looks like they’ll have Scott Russell (normally the prime time host, IIRC) hosting during the midday/afternoon hours. That makes a lot of sense, given the 6 hour time difference.

Georgie56 3067 Posted May 8 Author Share Posted May 8 Steve Kornacki and Willie Geist will be a part of NBC’s coverage. As will Golf Channel’s Kira Dixon and WCVB’s Naoko Funayama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just pointing this out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 38 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Why does the article say that wcvb is an NBC affiliate when it's an ABC affiliate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a win-win situation.... WCVB has someone in Paris covering the Olympics on NBC's dime and NBC adds an experienced Olympics reporter to the roaster. 1 hour ago, JTT said: Why does the article say that wcvb is an NBC affiliate when it's an ABC affiliate? A simple mistake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
