Nbc - All Olympics All The Time

NBC plans to set up a TV network, composed of both local broadcast stations and cable
outlets, that will be devoted entirely to Olympic Sports, published reports said
Monday. As part of its plans, NBC has taken a stake in World Championship Sports
Network, which will carry the programming and change its name to Universal Sports Network..
WCSN currently provides programming via over-the-air TV stations and a website that
streams live sporting events. The companies' plans could conflict with another Olympics
channel being developed by the U.S. Olympic Committee. Answering the question of
how Universal Sports expects to fill a full daily schedule with Olympics coverage
before the summer games actually begin, the companies said in their statement that
the channel plans to provide a "year-round destination for the elite and everyday athletes
who compete, hope to compete and admire those who compete" in the Olympics.
