NBCfail Tweets Part I

The NBC broadcast of the 2012 Olympics was a nightmare for those that love the Olympics. Rather than broadcast many of the iconic and signature Olympic events LIVE, NBC decided to show the events on tape-delay. Viewers were furious and many of them took to Twitter to express their disgust and frustration with NBC’s tape-delay strategy. This slideshow, which is comprised primarily Tweets from August 5th, is a testament to the anger that NBC’s 2012 Olympic broadcast raised. It is also a testament to the humor, cleverness, wittiness, and intelligence that is possessed by so many Tweeters across the nation. Music: Scott Joplin, “The Entertainer”, Duke Ellington, “Swampy River” and “Louisiana”, and “Rags To Riches” by
