Olympics 2008

[Alex]

I'd forgotten anybody other than NBC ever did them.

According to information at Wikipedia, in the United States each individual Olympics has had single network coverage* since 1960, though the network involved has changed from event to event and this is NBC's fifth consecutive summer Olympics.

1960 - CBS (summer and winter)
1964 - NBC (summer) / ABC (winter)
1968 - ABC (summer and winter)
1972 - ABC (summer) / NBC (winter)
1976 - ABC (summer and winter)
1980 - NBC (summer) / ABC (winter)
1984 - ABC (summer and winter)
1988 - NBC (summer) / ABC (winter)
1992 - NBC (summer) / CBS (winter)
1994 - CBS (winter)
1996 - NBC (summer)
1998 - CBS (winter)
2000 - NBC (summer)
2002 - NBC (winter)
2004 - NBC (summer)
2006 - NBC (winter)
2008 - NBC (summer)


* Also according to Wikipedia, for the 1998 TNT paid CBS $50 million for rights to air 50 hours of coverage.
