View story 1 0 Nine & Foxtel secure Olympics http://www.theage.com.au/news/sport/nine-foxtel-secure-olymp... Submitted by mgorey 25 months, 3 weeks, 6 days, 18 hours ago The Nine Network and Foxtel have secured the exclusive broadcast rights for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics and the 2012 London Summer Olympics. Next year's Beijing Olympics are being broadcast by the Seven Network. I'm not sure the Olympics are good television for free-to-air networks. They can be very disruptive to programming. Beijing's timezone is a benefit for next year's coverage, but London is 8-10 hours behind Australia, meaning many of the evening events won't be shown until early in the morning.
