NBC Displays Poor Taste!
NBCs constantly showing the Georgian luger who was accidentally killed on Friday during practice runs shows how out of touch they are with reality. Don't they know that by repeatedly showing the accident they could be scarring a child for life? Don't they realize that this is not about ratings? They are the only network televising the Olympics! They have displayed a total lack of class and sensitivity.
They showed the accident four times during a two hour broadcast of the Today show this morning. I am sure that when the Olympic telecast starts at 2:00 pm today, they will continue to show their total disregard for life and show it most of the day, over and over. Enough!
Come on NBC, wake up and show some good taste and stop playing the accident. We all feel bad that it happened but replaying it will only disgust most of the viewing public. It is a wonder none of the advertisers haven't complained. If I were a sponsor of the Olympics, I would be demanding NBC stop playing the death of this young athlete. It borders on criminal behavior.
Let NBC know how you feel. Send them an email at: nbcolympicsfeedback@nbcuni.com
That is my stand, what do you think?

NBC got the message and announced that they were not going to show the death of the luger again during the Olympics. Thank you.
