AAARRUUUUGGGGGG!

NBC paid God-knows how much money to air the Olympics on its multiple networks and results of events that will not air until tonight are splashed all over MSNBC.com’s home page. I know MSNBC.com is a news site and they need to report the news just like everyone else, but this sure seems like a disconnect to me and it’s as bad as reporting spoilers to movies. Why not instead put a prominent link on the home page to a section of the site where the Olympics are reported? Those interested can go there and everyone else can still surf news sites without learning who won every event we have yet to watch. And, even if every news site didn’t want to do this, you’d think NBC would try a little harder to protect its investment and work something out with MSNBC.
