Durban Sandshark Posted July 8, 2024 Report Posted July 8, 2024 Some stuff before the big one coming in a day or two. TV Slovenija 2 currently is airing a 14-part documentary entitled Slovenia's Olympic History, detailing the people, moments, and sports Slovenia enjoyed in its 32-year Olympic history since 1992. Airs everyday with each new part as we get excited over Paris 2024. RTV SLO will release general info on its planned coverage very soon surely: https://www.rtvslo.si/sport/oi-2024/tv-spored Nine Network Australia and ABC Radio strikes a radio deal allowing Nine Radio's Paris 2024 coverage to be aired in the regional cities outside the major Australian cities in the ABC Local Radio stations in Canberra, Adelaide, Darwin, and Hobart to ensure live Olympic nationwide broadcast coverage involving Australian athletes, both ceremonies, and highlights. Was wondering would those get this treatment since apparently Nine doesn't own radio stations in those areas. Why no Wollongong, Newcastle, Cairns/Townsville/Mackay? Is it because the first two are considered part of Sydney with 2GB like with Gosford in the Central Coast? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-08/abc-paris-olympics-2024-radio-broadcast-deal-across-australia/104072432 Dominican Republic's Antena 7 along with sibling channel Canal 21 from the Grupo Albavision family return to broadcast another Summer Olympics with Paris this summer. Details about their coverage remain low, but we'll get a look as we get closer Another Latin American Paris 2024 promo in Chilevision from Chile, the only official home of these Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, narrating about the passion, working on a dream for 4 years towards the greatest sports event on the planet, and leaving a legacy with it. Mixes great Olympic sports moments with Chilean ones: TVNorge/Eurosport Norge/HBO MAX Paris 2024 commentary team--non track and field--50 commentator and analysts/experts personnel in all here.

sebastien1214 Posted July 9, 2024 Report Posted July 9, 2024 A little idea of the coverage we will have in France of the Olympic Games: 20 hours per day dedicated to the Games (except Sunday). And the 4 hours which are not 100% devoted to the Games are information broadcasts, which will therefore talk for a good part about the Games, so... Quote
yoshi Posted July 9, 2024 Report Posted July 9, 2024 (edited) Well it's the wall to wall coverage I'd expect - BBC One showed nothing else for 16 days in 2012, I'm sure it's the case for every host's main channel. The thing I'm concerned about, mainly for France & us but the rest of Europe too that are under the deal, is how much coverage there'll be on linear, therefore how many people will need to go to Discovery plus, therefore how likely it is that their servers don't survive...

Quaker2001 Posted July 9, 2024 Report Posted July 9, 2024 Paris 2024: NBC Olympics' Technical Efforts Will Be Four Times Larger Than the Tokyo 2020 Games’ Some notes from this.. NBC will have 8 studio locations throughout Paris, including Studio A at the Trocadero. Studio B will be for the Today Show. NBC will have 45 of their own cameras for the Opening Ceremony in addition to the 100 from the world feed. And that's not including 200 camera phones. The total number of cameras from all entities is expected to near 1,000. NBC's presence at the IBC will be smaller than in the past. There will be 2 announce booths and a midsize studio there, mostly for Peacock. Olympic Zone will be back on NBC, presumably at 7:30 ET every night except for Sundays. There will be dedicated NBC production trucks for athletics, gymnastics, and swimming. NBC will also have a unilateral presence (meaning their own cameras, in addition to the world feed) and several other venues. 12 control rooms will be in use in Stamford in addition to 28 announcer booths, several of which will have additional capabilities like graphic insertion and telestration. 2 1 Quote

Durban Sandshark Posted July 12, 2024 Report Posted July 12, 2024 A little correction to what I wrote the other day about that 14-part Slovenian docuemntary. The documentary series on TV Slovenija 2 is actually called Slovenia's Olympic Century--and I actually wrote about this three years ago at this time. Detailing Slovenia's Olympic history, its personalities, and memorable Olympic moments going back from when it was part of Yugoslavia, Austria-Hungary Empire, and eventually as an independent nation, the 14-part documentary series reaired on July 5, coming with later episodes each following day. Not sure if a new episode was since added to reflect the COVID-impacted Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics including the Luka Doncic-led Slovenian basketball team's Olympic debut finishing 4th behind Australia's Boomers in the bronze medal game and Janja Garnbret's and Benjamin Savšek's gold medals. Anyway, here's the promo: In a related story, RTV Slovenija had just now aired its live Predstavitev slovenske olimpijske reprezentance 2024 show on TV Slovenija 1, announcing with the help of the Slovenian Olympic Committee presenting all of Slovenia's 90-strong Paris 2024 team featuring Janja Garnbret and Benjamin Savšek aiming to defend their gold medals, its biggest team yet since its 1992 debut, from Koper to meet with RTV Slovenija, Slovenian Olympic Committee members and VIPs, and fans. Actually 65 of the 70 athletes are present with the remaining 5 still competing. Co-hosted by Jožet Robežnik and . Even introduced their Paralympic counterparts: https://www-rtvslo-si.translate.goog/sport/oi-2024/predstavitev-slovenske-olimpijske-reprezentance/714525?_x_tr_sl=sl&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc Just checked a bit on what TV Slovenija's Paris 2024 coverage plans are. Hasn't been fully released as of yet, but we'll get them very shortly. From what I gather, as of this writing, TV Slovenija 2 will definitely handle it. But what is discovered is that on July 24, TV Slovenija won't show anything but will the next day (July 26) live when the Slovenian women's handball team take on Olympic medal faves Denmark in Group A action at 11m Slovenia time. At the 100-day mark, the Nine Network and sibling streaming carrier Stan Sport released a promo to encourage Aussies to "let's turn Paris green and gold" during their massive presentation of the Paris 2024 coverage. Really cool and brilliant promo--All set to Plastic Bertrand's 1978 global smash Ca Pland Pour Moi, including in Australia. He's Belgian, by the way, but from the French part. Translated, it means That's Cool With Me. It's a silly song that doesn't always make sense in a slice of day in the life. Just had a feeling that song would somehow be used for Olympic promos and obviously chosen because it's a French pop song many worldwide likely know. Pro-Aussie footage naturally from recent past Olympics like London 2012 mixed with some international athletes at the Olympics, even with baseball, despite that being dropped for the moment from the Olympic roster, and scenes from Paris with wine and croissants: https://www.facebook.com/Channel9/videos/100-days-until-olympic-games-paris-2024/947350797037672/ No narration dialogue with this one from 9. Just the moments of competition and all the accompanying emotions from the athletes with a rising music score: https://www.facebook.com/WideWorldOfSports/videos/50-days-until-paris-2024/774361158019285/ It turns out that with the Nine Network Australia's and ABC Radio Local's radio sublicensing Paris 2024 deal that involves 891 ABC Adelaide, 105.7 ABC Darwin, 936 ABC Hobart, 666 ABC Canberra and DAB+ channels in those markets, as well as local ABC radio stations across regional, rural, and remote Australia indicates that ABC Radio Local will be allowed to use its own Olympic Games commentary for many Australian-centric events transmitted to those stations. Even Victory Ceremonies; highlights programs, updates of key events, and general replay coverage; and comprehensive coverage during regularly scheduled news programming. In addition, Nine will provide ABC Local Radio with access to its exclusive live, on the ground television and radio commentary and interviews, as well as those of the IOC. All broadcast coverage by the ABC will and must acknowledge Nine as "the Home of the Olympics" during licensed broadcasts in Australia, as well as in any promotional/marketing material. So ABC Olympic Grandstand kinda lives with a Nine infusion. However, something comes off a little odd with the fact that Adelaide is treated as a regional city here despite being one of Australia's six largest cities in population and South Australia capital city. Why does it treated as such? Is this because Adelaide currently lacks its own Nine Radio affiliate that the other big Australian cities nationwide do? https://www.mediaweek.com.au/nine-and-abc-partner-for-radio-coverage-of-the-paris-2024-olympic-games/ SKY Sport NZ took its sweet time in revealing its Paris 2024 coverage marketing campaign on the broadcasting side as New Zealand's exclusive broadcaster across its 12 Olympic Channels on SKY and SKY Now and at SKY Open (formerly PRIME NZ). About time we start to see some promos on this from NZ as we see across the Tasman Sea in comparison Nine Network Australia obviously far more frequent and aggressive with its developments. To be fair, SKY New Zealand has already made promotions on its website regarding its Paris 2024 packages for Kiwis to purchase in its promotions with New Zealand Olympic-centric athletes video clips. SKY has created a new AI-assisted campaign to promote its exclusive TV broadcast of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, with support from creative partner, DDB Group Aotearoa. Called From the Streets of Paris, the campaign reimagines Paris and the Olympics in the style of 19th century Paul Cazenne-inspired French impressionism using generative AI techniques, seeing New Zealand's athletes competing at iconic Paris locations. Something that's so far unique in promotions when considering Paris and France overall are justly famous for its rich art history like paintings and the world-famous Louvre Museum, among many museums there: Quote Dan Kelly, chief customer officer for Sky, said the campaign was designed to get New Zealanders thinking about the Olympics in a different way: “Every four years, the Olympics brings our country to halt. This year, the jaw-dropping locations of the Games will also stop us in our tracks, from beach volleyball by the Eiffel Tower, to equestrian at the Chateau de Versailles. “The campaign captures your attention by bringing together the famous Impressionist style of painting and Olympians in action – including some New Zealand athletes, thanks to our partnership with the New Zealand Olympic Committee. “The team at Sky are proud to be bringing Paris 2024 to New Zealanders and this campaign will get sports fans around the country excited for the spectacle of the Olympic Games.” Says Matty Burton, group chief creative officer, DDB Aotearoa: “For centuries, humans have been obsessed with the streets of Paris, which feature in some of the world’s most famous artworks, especially those from the French impressionists such as Paul Cézanne. “Using AI for the visual style, generative fill and animation, we have created a campaign for Sky that presents Paris 2024 in an entirely unique way. This campaign draws on the inspiration of the past with the technology of the future.” The campaign highlights multiple sports across out of home and through a series of 6, 15 & 30-second films, that will run across the Sky platform, VOD, digital and social media from 8 July.

PS: hopefully we'll see some Maori language coverage from SKY starting with Los Angeles: https://campaignbrief.co.nz/2024/07/10/sky-reimagines-the-olympic-games-paris-2024-in-ai-assisted-campaign-via-ddb-group-aotearoa/ https://www.lbbonline.com/news/sky-reimagines-the-olympic-games-paris-2024-in-ai-assisted-campaign As a nice reminder about YLE's Paris 2024 coverage plans when July turns to August. YLE broadcasts the atmosphere of the competition live on YLE TV2, Yle Areena, and Radio Finland every day of the competition. The Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games are shown on TV2 and Areena every day from nine in the morning until half past midnight Finland time. Radio Suomen Olympiaradio broadcasts every day from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and from 7:00 p.m. until late at night. Competition events are followed almost around the clock on Yle Urheilu's website, Yle app and Yle Urheilu's social media channels. Yle's Paris 2024 event page offers the most interesting topics every day. Yle has the rights to show three different sports simultaneously on television and in Yle Areena, excluding water sports and basketball, which belong to Warner Brothers Discovery Suomi. Basketball and swimming reports are heard on Yle Radio Finland. Paris 2024 will kick off as early as Wednesday, July 24, when the soccer broadcasts begin. The Opening Ceremony broadcast will start on Friday July 26. at 20:00 on TV2 and Yle Areena. During the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games, YLE broadcasts more than 700 hours of race broadcasts on TV and Areena and more than 130 hours on Radio Suomi's Olympiaradio. But what's new here as the link will show us is that there's now a complete YLE Paris 2024 sportscasting roster for TV2 and YLE Areena on the TV side and YLE Radio Olympiaradio for radio, which will include basketball and aquatics. Several of YLE's Paris 2024 commentary team are handling more than one Olympic sport, some related. They will include YLE's broadcasts, the commentators for track and field/athletics are Kimmo Porttila and Johannes Oikarinen (Yle TV2, Yle Areena), and Mikko Hannula and Aaro Linnalaakso (Yle Radio Suomi). Tuomas Raja and Jaakko Ojaniemi are experts in track and field/athletics. Laura Arffman and Petra Manner will be seen as reporters at the Stade de France. Riku Salminen, experienced Paris correspondent Annastiina Heikkilä, Nina Vanhatalo on shooting and Simo Leinonen on golf report from the race venues and street noise to the home stands, among others. In Marseille, Riikka Smolander-Slotte conveys the mood and scene of the sailing team together with YLE Urheilu's recent expert, London 2012 Olympic silver medalist Tuuli Petäjä-Sirén. At the Pasila headquarters studio, the presenters are Inka Henelius, Sami Laine and Antti-Jussi Sipilä. On Radio Suomen's frequency, among others, Henri Pitkänen, Markus Turunen, and Sanna Pirkkalainen will present. Mika Saarelainen and Jouko Vuolle will co-host the Opening Ceremony as the latter conducts the Closing: https://yle.fi/a/74-20098588 Eurosport 1 Deutschland will be the only German free TV channel offering 19 consecutive days of live Paris 2024 action as opposed to the alternating ZDF and ARD. Much of this press release below covers almost all the previous info in an all-encompassing manner here. So I won't really convey them much here this time. Emphasizing "entertainment, expertise, emotions" more than what the two public German channels will, it'll contain every second of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 live on discovery+ and "Convey the pulse of the games" with everything regularly scheduled programming on temp leave and switched off for the duration of the games. Eurosport 1 will then be the Olympic broadcaster 24/7. The streaming service discovery+ allows you to follow every second of the first games on European soil since London 2012 live with 3800 hours and 329 medal events shown live and without interruption, later on demand and all customizable on digital platforms on a wide variety of screens like tablets, smart TVs, and smartphones in multi-languages audio feeds with the 19 languages chosen. The interesting thing from Eurosport 1 Germany is the return of the daily 24/7 Olympic schedule and structure, starting with the breakfast show "Bonjour Paris" and then the Olympia Live Medal Zone action from 9-18:30 CET, interrupted only by News Flashes at 13:00, 15:00, and before 18:30 when the evening show Bonsoir Paris comes on for a half hour when 19-22:30 the action resumes until Fabian Hambuchen and Thomas Wagner comes in again. There's an hour of Olympia Live until Eurosport 1 goes into replays and highlights 1-7:00. “Paris 2024 – these are the games where fans, friends and family can be there again. They will be the games of emotions: tears, triumphs, cheers, sadness. For two weeks, Paris will captivate the world. Our goal is to put the countless stories of the athletes at the centre and to anchor the Olympics and all their emotions forever in the memories of fans through our reporting. Our storytelling, which is the DNA of Warner Bros. Discovery, will be thrilling, compassionate and quite simply moving. With us, the viewer should feel the pulse of the games – whether on the television screen or via their smartphone ,” says Jochen Gundel, Director Sports GSA at Warner Bros. Discovery. Just the several examples previously mentioned: Eurosport reporting from the heart of the Olympic city with that "spectacular studio set designed for this in Paris: the WBD house on the roof of the famous "Hotel Raphael", which offers a 360° view of the Olympic city - with a direct view of the Eiffel Tower on one side and the Arc de Triomphe on the other;" Birgit Nössing starting the Olympic morning with the breakfast show "Bonjour Paris" at 7:00 a.m. from the roof-top studio in Paris. From 9:00 a.m. it's "Medal Zone" - the real Olympic conference on free TV as the point of contact for all viewers who want to see every important decision live; Eurosport hosting two primetime shows entertainment with all the highlights "Bonsoir Paris" at 6:30 p.m. and around 10:30 p.m. The evening shows are hosted by presenter Thomas Wagner and live from the German House: Olympic expert Fabian Hambüchen, the Olympic horizontal bar champion from Rio 2016 as a reporter on site, Eurosport is closer to the athletes and right in the middle of the action and his goal is "not to go around loudly and blusteringly. Nor do I want to do superficial, obliging journalism. I want to contribute my knowledge from 15 years of top-class sport, maintain my curiosity and share in special moments with the greatest possible empathy - and have them told to me by those who gave them to us," says Hambüchen in an exclusive interview in the magazine PARIS.24, which has been available in stores since yesterday; 30 current and former athletes as Eurosport's first class analysts/experts with 26 Olympic medals at the microphone: emotion, wit and rhetoric in their expertise, Stream D daily streaming show with Florian Eckl and Lisa Hoffman live from the Stade Jean Bouin, the "Home of Team Germany" in cooperation with Deutsche Sport Marketing (DSM), which plans and implements the German House in Paris on behalf of the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB); InPlay Reels and Gold Alarms coming back; and BD securing a record number of multi-market sponsorship agreements for Paris 2024 in Eurosport with new and long-standing premium presenting partners such as Bridgestone, Samsung and ADP Eurosport also stands for first-class expertise in commentary: Around 30 current and former athletes - decorated with 26 Olympic medals - will be competing for Eurosport at the Games in Paris. In addition to the classic Olympic sports of athletics and swimming, the focus is on the many promising teams in team sports such as hockey, women's football, handball and basketball. In addition, there is the experienced team of commentators: the voices of Eurosport such as Sigi Heinrich, who is already competing in his 16th Olympic Games in Paris and will accompany the opening ceremony. The well-known voices of Matthias Stach, Markus Theil, Roman Knoblauch, Gerhard Leinauer, Uwe Semrau, Karsten Migels, Guido Heuber, Marc Rohde, Markus Röhrig, Dirk-Alexander Lude, Andreas Spellig, Harry Weber, Nico Zacek and many more will open the emotional door to the sports and inspire viewers with expertise, wit and rhetoric: https://presse.wbd-deutschland.de/post/entertainment-expertise-emotionen-die-olympischen-spiele-paris-2 Right now, BeIN Sports MENA has yet to release its Paris 2024 coverage plans across the Middle East and North Africa--don't know yet who will cover the sports and the ceremonies, the studio hosts, how many hours overall, etc. We definitely can assume the coverage will be multichannel, live and recorded, offer Olympic-themed documentaries, be in at least both Arabic and English in having Olympic-specific multiple channels Keeping in this region, news broke that Moroccan Olympic fans should be happy about with Morocco's National Radio and Television Company (SNRT), its state-owned public broadcaster, once again obtained the broadcasting rights to cover Olympic Games in Morocco with Paris 2024. Likely will fall on its Arryadia 3 SNRT channel if not other its sibling channels being included. We can at least see these names involved covering the Paris action: Soufiane Rachidi, Mohamed Addali, Adil Messaoudi, Hicham Faraj, Abdessamad Ould Chaiba, Ayoub Adeeb, Sufyan Al-Rashidi, Khalil Fayed, Ahmad Haban, and Ehsan Bokhar--I got the names thanks to Wikipedia's Arryadia 3's entries in both French and Arabic. Doesn't say much right now beyond this: https://snrtnews.com/fr/article/la-snrt-obtient-les-droits-de-diffusion-des-jo-paris-2024-99634 Mediatiempo's Mario Baldelli paid a visit to Televisa/TUDN's Mexico City headquarters and got the scoop from talking with Valeria Marín, Enrique Burak, Miguel Ángel García and Rodrigo Arteaga about their planned Paris 2024 coverage of the Olympic Games. The same coverage will return to Mexican open television and reach millions of Mexican homes through all of the company's platforms such as Channel 5, Channel 9, TUDN, ViX, among others. For this event, the company's team will provide 24/7 coverage through its various channels not only from its headquarters on Avenida Chapultepec in Mexico City, but will also have its own studio near the Place du Trocadero in the heart of Paris to help bring the entire experience to Mexicans. In this interview with mediotiempo, Miguel Ángel García, executive vice president of live events and production services at TelevisaUnivisión; Rodrigo Arteaga, programming director at TUDN; Valeria Marín and Enrique Burak highlighted the titanic work that the company has developed over the years to provide the best coverage of the Olympic Games to the millions of viewers who will be watching in Mexico. What will TUDN's coverage be like in Paris 2024? Miguel Ángel García shared that TelevisaUnivisión aims to provide one of the best possible coverages in the history of the Olympic Games. Highlighting the presence they will have in Paris through their studio on the Place du Trocadero in the heart of Paris, and also the infrastructure they will have at their disposal at the International Press Centre (International Broadcast Centre/IBC). “Without a doubt, one of the best coverages. Very different from what we did in 2021. We have a fairly extensive deployment in Paris, we have been building this plan for the last two years. We have a studio in the heart of Paris on the Plaza del Trocadero to be able to bring the entire experience to all our viewers. We will have our technical infrastructure at the International Press Center (IBC) to be able to serve all the platforms in the Televisa ecosystem .” “ Televisa has always been known for implementing the latest in technology. This means providing real-time service to all of our platforms, news, entertainment, sports, Vix , etc. So you will be able to enjoy at home all of this coverage that we are putting together with everyone who will be in Paris and the entire team that is based in Chapultepec.” Likewise, García emphasized the fact that TelevisaUnivisión will provide 24/7 coverage through its various channels and platforms for the enjoyment of all viewers. He also mentioned that they will take care of even the smallest detail to provide a broadcast worthy of the Olympic Games. “We are ready to bring you this great coverage, to cover all the stories and you will be able to enjoy it 24/7. We are a team that has been working on it for the last two years and every detail involved in putting on the Olympic Games is very detailed. In terms of technology, programming, on-air presence and the presence of all those who are fortunate enough to be in Paris.” Televisa's coverage will be six times larger in the number of hours than in Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games. For his part, Rodrigo Arteaga stated that it is vital to provide coverage with the greatest possible access, he also indicated that they will have coverage going from the first hour of competitions in Paris until closing with the last event competitions of the day, which this very same coverage can be seen through all of the group's platforms including Vix, IZZi Go and SKY from all its three channels. “The most important thing is to generate the greatest coverage, with the best access and with the extraordinary deployment that we have. We are going to have daily blocks starting in the early morning on TUDN, which will also be linked in the mornings to Channel 5, which will go from 6am-3pm daily Mexico/USA/Canada CT. Will have a strategy that they have developed to have the greatest coverage of the best athletes worldwide, obviously of Mexican athletes and medal competitions. Additionally, we will have a block in the mornings on Channel 9 from 8am-3pm to provide open TV coverage of approximately 200 hours, in addition to the coverage we will have 24/7 on TUDN starting with 1am-3pm. The same will be available on ViX and the group's platforms such as IZZi Go and Sky on mobile phones. We are very committed to Olympic sport and our athletes." An Olympic Games 'for the family' One of the main faces of the Olympic Games on Televisa will be the host and analyst Valeria Marín, who shared her enthusiasm for being "very excited" to be able to cover an event of the stature of the Olympic Games alongside figures such as Enrique Burak, Toño de Valdés, Francisco Javier Gonzalez, Memo Schutz, and new addition David Faitelson among others and thinks about them when thinking about the Olympic Games. This, added to the family factor that Televisa will provide through multidisciplinary coverage that will include sports analysis, shows, tourism, among other aspects. "I think about families and I think that the TUDN team has always been concerned about giving this familiar face, of knowledge, but we are also a show event, so we have to cover everything. We are super excited, I can assure you that we are ready to provide coverage of the calibre of what the Olympic Games deserve. I am very fortunate to be able to be part of the team and share with great figures like those I mentioned.” Finally, Enrique Burak, who will be covering his eleventh Olympic Games with experience dating back to the 1984 Los Angeles edition, sees Paris 2024 as an excellent opportunity to "reconnect", since after the Tokyo 2020 edition, which had to be held during the Covid-19 pandemic, France is presented as an excellent place to "return and celebrate". Especially taking into account the outstanding venues where some competitions will be held, such as the Eiffel Tower or the Palace of Versailles. “I think that above all it is about meeting again. After not having the rights to Rio 2016 because of America Movil, we returned for Tokyo 2020 but the pandemic crossed our path. There were great expectations for the games and seeing the great athletes of the world sport and our great athletes. But they were a rather cold Olympic Games, not having public in the venues was a real shame but now it is totally different, it is time to celebrate and to return. What better city than Paris to host the Olympic Games? The natural settings that will also be used for the activity. The fact of having beach volleyball on the slopes of the Eiffel Tower or having equestrian events in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles, or having breaking in the Place de la Concorde with its appearance of the Olympic Games, which are not only trying to maintain professional sports, but also new disciplines. It is a great celebration of humanity to see the best athletes from all over the world.”: https://www.mediotiempo.com/deportes-olimpicos/juegos-olimpicos/televisa-transmitira-juegos-olimpicos-paris-2024-tokio-2020 Moreover, Televisa provided further info and will present through La Jugada Olímpica, as one of the company's flagship programs, that it will seek to connect with the audience. The broadcast will begin at 6:30 p.m., Mexico time, as a summary of the day with Jorge Guerrero at the helm, in production, is really very good. It's indeed for all sectors, not a program that is for the sports consumer, no, this is a mix because it is trying to reach the entire audience, the family,” explained Toño de Valdés, in an interview with ESTO. Tono de Valdes The reporter has vast experience that he has developed since the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games. Ana Caty Hernández will join the La Jugada Olímpica team, who will have her first professional experience at the Olympic Games. “I am very excited, very happy, convinced that we will have great coverage. As a company, we are really focused on having the official broadcaster of the Olympic Games cover those 200 hours of open television and find those stories and competition of the Mexican delegation and that they cover the entire family,” said Ana Caty Hernández. The coverage will also feature the presence of talents such as Memo Schutz and Valeria Marín, among others. As is now customary, the broadcasts will feature a group of former Mexican athletes turned narrating experts in the top disciplines. Among them are Claudia Esteva (gymnastics), Bernardo Segura (walking), Iridia Salazar (taekwondo), Fernando Platas (diving), Mariana Avitia (archery), Luz Acosta (weightlifting), Alejandro Cárdenas (athletics), Marco Barrera (boxing), Benjamín Paredes (marathon) and Luis Vento (cycling). “All this coverage, as Televisa Univision usually does, the entire news team joins, Enrique Acevedo will be there, Denise Maerker will be there, Danielle will be there from Paris, the entertainment team will also join, Tania Rincón will be there as part of La Jugada Olímpica, making content for the whole family, Ricardo Margaleff doing the comedy,” explained Martha Soto, Vice President of Development and Talent Services at Televisa Univision. As part of the strategy, Televisa Univisión designated 20 ambassadors, that is, athletes who are sponsored by the television station and who share their extraordinary stories through its channels. “Our 20 ambassadors, who are one of the bets that Televisa has made for these Olympic Games, trusting in our Mexican athletes, we believe that in these Olympic Games we are going to connect with people,” said Sergio Jiménez, Editorial Director of TUDN.

Also, La Deux/Tipik, as expected, will handle the sports coverage starting daily on July 28-29 from 9:00am all the way to 22:29 (10:29pm) uninterrupted with multiple sports like rowing, field hockey, badminton, basketball, beach volleyball, fencing, soccer, gymnastics, boxing, swimming, cycling, boxing, canoeing, and team handball. Perhaps it'll be wraparound here. Also also, both RTBF's TV channels will not be involved in the pre-Opening Ceremony sports in the two days of soccer, team handball, men's rugby 7s, and archery. But it won't stop Belgians from watching those sports' action from neighboring France 2 and France 3 that will be of course France-centric. RTBF Belgium has a short podcast series, each episode of the Summer Olympics from Athens 1896 to Tokyo 2020, as general overviews. Each lasting between 5-8 minutes with a Belgian bent: https://www.rtbf.be/article/podcast-l-essentiel-de-l-histoire-des-jeux-olympiques-d-athenes-1896-a-tokyo-2020-11402879 Canal 5 Uruguay promises to show "more than 12 hours a day of live broadcasting where you will be able to follow all our Uruguayan athletes". Uruguay's National Olympic Committee expects to send 25 athletes in multiple sports--like judo, taekwondo, swimming, athletics, canoeing, and rowing--to Paris in a couple of weeks for Uruguayans can follow. Canal 5 Uruguay's plans also includes reports and news from Paris and can even participate well before the Opening Ceremony and using its own cameras. Martín Franco, a sports journalist, will be in charge of providing direct coverage from the French capital, ensuring a constant connection with the events and the Uruguayan athletes. Already has a preview show called Rumbo a París 2024 hosted by Inés Remersaro: https://mediospublicos.uy/canal-5-transmitira-los-juegos-olimpicos-de-paris-2024/ Apparently Canal 4 Uruguay is also involved announced from weeks before too: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4LwCe2P-np/ One of the latest Sportsmax Paris 2024 promos. Surely Sportsmax's Paris 2024 fuller coverage announcement has been delayed because of Hurricane Beryl with many other English-speaking West Indies nations and Belize and Guyana still not being publicly announced as we're over two weeks away: Quote

Although everything is only 1080p upconverted, so it's not like it would be a true 4K signal in the first place That's the interesting thing about it overall with USA Network ONLY getting this 4K/Dobly Atmos coverage. In a sense, I get it, given that it's a cable network and is the designated "Home of Team USA" come Olympic time. So NBCU aims to give it the best for viewership and viewing purposes. But why not NBC proper, Peacock, Telemundo/NBC Universo and all the other members of the NBC Olympic family this time? They all deserve this 4K/Dolby Atmos treatment given all the technological stops NBCU has invested in this massive project that'll attract many. You're right this is a step backwards for NBC from Tokyo, but the tech is certainly already there for us to upgrade. HEY! NBC'S FULL PARIS 2024 SUMMER OLYMPIC MEDIA VIEWING SCHEDULE IS NOW UP, GUYS! Realized that Deadline was already updating the NBC Paris 2024 schedule with new info on a daily basis, including Telemundo/NBC Universo's--which you can see here with all times US/Canada/Mexico PT, BTW--is also incomplete as I write this, going as far as July 31. No Telemundo/NBC Universo's Paris 2024 schedule listing on the NBC press release, so I guess that'll be separate. Also, I noticed there's a live 90-minute pre-Opening Ceremony show at 11AM-12:30PM before the actual live Opening Ceremony but for the later showing, there will be a 30-minute version. That said, there's also no IHeartRadio Paris 2024 schedule yet in what's the offering there. We'll get a press release on that soon-and touch on that entity as we Americans here listen on iHeartRadio stations the constant promotions as "the exclusive audio home of the Paris 2024 Olympics". Obviously this is a big weekend over France because this is now Bastille Day Weekend with the day itself falling on a Sunday! France Televisions will be there with France 2, 3, and 4 with Franceinfo Channel 27 and TV5Monde France. Of course, with this being a Summer Olympic year hosted in France, we will definitely see some Olympic and Paralympic Games synergy with the big Bastille Day military parade in Paris along Avenue Foch with the likes of Marie-Josee Perec, Brahim Asloum, and Arnaud Jerald on July 14. Later that day, as the Tour De France still well underway, the Olympic Flame will finally make its way into Paris as the relay makes its way through the most iconic Paris parts on July 14-15 as Paris happily welcomes it, arriving and journeying in the city before visiting and stopping at Paris City Hall. There will also be a classic musical concert there and fireworks--with drones--on the night of July 15.

Durban Sandshark Posted July 15, 2024 Report Posted July 15, 2024 NBC Sports selects and to utilize Canon for its production in Paris to provide viewers with 115 4K UHD and HD field and studio lenses with digital imagining solutions, continuing its 34-year relationship together: https://www.nbcsports.com/pressbox/press-releases/nbc-sports-selects-field-and-studio-lenses-provider-for-its-production-of-2024-olympic-paralympic-games-in-paris With Andorra sending only two athletes in canoeist Monica Doria and steeplechaser Nahuel Carabana to Paris in their short trip there, RTVA will cover both of their Olympic journeys as long they last and, apparently like it did in Tokyo with Doria and 800m runner Pol Moya judging by TVA's schedule, ONLY their competitions with reairings along with both ceremonies if Tokyo 2020 is an indicator with news surrounding them. TVA has a Paris 2024 promo already up with coverage sponsored by ANDBANK: Some additional info emerged out the CBC regarding its upcoming Paris 2024 coverage. The network's RBC Olympic Games Morning show in Paris will originate from Canada Olympic House, a venue in the Park of Nations that will be packed with friends, family and supporters. Veteran broadcaster Scott Russell will host the six-hour afternoon segment, Bell Paris Prime, in his final Olympic Games before his impending retirement in September after 40 years with the CBC (this already known here), and CBC chief correspondent Adrienne Arsenault will host special editions of "The National" live from Paris. 200 CBC staffers overall will be on hand in Paris with longtime CBC Sports executive producer and director Sherali Najak — a former Hockey Night in Canada executive producer — will serving as executive producer of the Games, possessing "a slightly different creative vision" and "definitely going to have a twist in a lot of different ways" while still being a CBC Olympics: https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/cbc-planning-22-hours-olympic-120010544.html Have not seen any signs of TeleLatino, TLN, getting involved with the Olympic soccer once again with Paris after just now coming off of its portion of the EURO 2024 Canadian TV presentation. Because Brazil and Italy will not participate in men's Olympic soccer, apparently there's a feeling of not going to be as much interest or negotiations with the CBC in terms of sublicensing that will see Portuguese and Italian used like In Tokyo or Rio De Janeiro as well as Spanish. Brazil's women definitely are, but we should've seen something by now weeks in advance. Also will CBC/SRC-Radio-Canada, including TSN, Sportsnet, and RDS, have its Paris 2024 coverage placed once again on Amazon Prime streaming? Albanian Radiotelevision (RTSH) and the Albanian National Olympic Committee (KOKSH) have signed a cooperation agreement over a week before the start of the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics. The document was signed in Tirana by the General Director of RTSH, Alfred Peza and by the president of KOKSH, Fidel Ylli. In an almost two-hour visit to the KOKSH offices, Mr. Peza has become familiar with the virtual platforms of the highest institution of Albanian Olympism, closely watching the media offices and projects for the development of new television studios. This document provides RTSH exclusive rights and access to broadcast the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics in Albania The Olympic Games "Paris 2024" are an exclusive of Albanian Radio Television and the Albanian National Olympic Committee will offer everything directly from the Albanian and Kosovar athletes from Paris, which will then be broadcast on RTSH with a "greater visibility many times than we have in our social networks as RTSH being the biggest media giant." The General Director of RTSH also visited the wrestling and weightlifting gyms and congratulated the Committee for everything it has organized. Likely it'll be seen on RTSH Sport and RTSH 2 with long daily hours of coverage: https://lajme-rtsh-al.translate.goog/artikull/firmoset-bashkepunimi-me-koksh-lojerat-olimpike-paris-2024-ekskluzivisht-ne-rtsh?_x_tr_sl=sq&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc Annette Fetscherin and Stefan Hofmann will co-host the live Swiss-German SRF2 presentation of the Opening Ceremony from Paris 19:00 - 23:05 CET. Before that, there's a 60-minute documentary on Swiss track and field decathlete Simon Ehammer, whose Olympic participation eludes him. On the Swiss-French side, RTS will offer 15 hours of live coverage every day on RTS 2, a wide variety of simultaneous choices, replays and summaries on the Play RTS and RTS Sport applications. Daily coverage will be provided in all RTS news programs, across all channels. The opening ceremony will be commented live on Friday, July 26 from 7:15 p.m. CET by John Nicolet and Pierre Poullier for television. This spectacle, prominent with thousands of athletes around the world being on boats along the Seine River in Paris, that will end in front of the Trocadéro, opposite the RTS, SRF, and RSI studios set up on site. The next day, it's time for the first events, with a gargantuan daily sports program taking place every day from 8:55 a.m. to around 11 p.m. RTS has 21 journalists on site to provide sports and non-sports coverage of the event on television, radio, on its Play RTS, and RTS Sport sites and apps and on social networks. In addition to live television, the rts.ch/sport website and the RTS Sport app offer six channels dedicated to the Olympic Games in collaboration with sister companies within the SSR, providing access to almost all disciplines live. A digital offer supplemented by summaries, replays, and the possibility of configuring the app to follow the sports of your choice on demand. On the radio side, journalists will be involved in all the news events of the day, with a special page in particular in La Matinale at 7:19 a.m. and at any time in the event of Swiss medals. Sport Première will also be on Olympic time on Saturdays July 27, August 3 and 10 from 7 p.m. on RTS La Première. The competitions will be offered in almost their entirety on the RTS Sport website and application: https://cominmag.ch/jo-de-paris-2024-15-heures-de-direct-par-jour-sur-les-antennes-de-la-rts/ Globo's Sports Director Renato Ribeiro explains the decision to hire Renata Silveira for SporTV and Natália Lara for Globo to O Globo newspaper's Anna Luiza Santiago. Both are strong play-by-play commentators with Silveira being more well-established of the two from Globo and covering soccer and will be a part of the SporTV team during the Olympics. For Natalia Lara, she was selected to be a sportscaster to gain great prominence and to increase and deepen Globo/SporTV's female sportscaster pool. And Renata will end up commentating games on Globo anyway, since the Brazilian Championship doesn't stop during the Games. SporTV will also have another narrator, Isabelly Morais, hired last year. According to Ribeiro, for now, the company does not intend to hire another professional for the role: "We'll see who shows up. There may even be some of our people who are interested. Then we'll record a pilot to evaluate it. We're keeping an eye on how the number of women will increase. For us, it's important that this happens in all roles, but at the moment, we're not training anyone. Globo will have 16 reporting teams in Paris and one in Tahiti. There will be more than 200 hours of broadcasting. The broadcaster already has more than 15 sponsors lined up. The big news on open TV will be the programs Central Olímpica, presented by Tadeu Schmidt and Fernanda Garay, and Volta Olímpica, with Alex Escobar and Felipe Andreoli. Both will air daily, the first after Renascer and the other in the morning and afternoon. Sportv will have four channels.

The 2024 Games, by contrast, will attract three times as many participants, from 206 countries, divided over 28 sports: https://www.televizier.nl/kijktips/nos-studio-parijs-actualiteitenprogramma-dione-de-graaff-olympische-spelen-2024-nos?referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.televizier.nl%2F&cduid=2c133322-dfad-4091-825f-ac549f86764a.1721142438686&consent=CQB2TAAQB2TAAFjAMBENA9EsAP_jwEPjwBpa0Bwb4AAgAFAAoADAAIAAVAAyAB4AEAAKAAVAAyABoADmAHoAfABCgCIAIwASYAmACcAFEAKgAVwAtwBeAF-AMIAxABlADZAG4AbwA5gB4gEAAQUAhACFgEQARIAjABOgChAFdAMAAwQBlQDRANIAasA4gDjAHRAO4A7wB4gD9AIQAREAiYBHACRAEmAJcATAAnEBOwE8AKyAXUAwIBjQDOQGmAacA6gB6gD9gIEAQOAhsBFICLwEagI9ASWAlkBMQCZwE7gLzAXsAxkBjoDHwGSQMmAycBlgDLwGgANtAc0A6ECAoEZhOICcTE44Jx8nMxOeSdGE61J4KUA4o-pSaSlqlMcKZqVjgr_xYMSwoFkRLQGB_cCmABQAFgAVAA8ACAAGQANAAiABMADEAG8APwAhIBEAESAMAAZQA0QB0QDuAO8AfoBCACIgEWAI4ASIAlIBdQDPgHUAROAi8BHoCVQExAJkAWyAvMBggDJIGTAZOAywB_YAYSACAP0dABAH6UgAgD9A.YAAAAAAAAAAA And France TV will definitely go all out, of course, with its massive Paris 2024 coverage with 4K UHD and Dolby Atmos, 5.1.4. immersive sound with audio description and improved dialogue, and DTT/ISPs as well as being on the Molotov service for both France 2 and France 3--only F2 will go with this beyond the Olympics and Paralympics: https://www.01net.com/actualites/4k-hdr-dolby-atmos-france-televisions-jeux-olympiques.html RFM, the official radio station of Team Portugal, and the Portuguese Olympic Committee present a podcast series entitled Gloria--Team Portugal Paris 2024.

The amount represents only the license to broadcast sports competitions in Romania. Adding to these costs are others in terms of a studio in the Paris Media Center, but also accommodation for the entire national television team, plus plane tickets, per diems and other expenses to be justified later. TVR's press release announces its Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games coverage comes at 280 broadcasting hours on its channels including its TVR Moldovan one for neighboring nation Moldova through 13 people in its TVR delegation sent to Paris between July 19 and August 13, "to cover the presence of Romanian athletes, but also the other competitions of the 2024 Summer Olympics", as stated in a decision of the Committee Director of SRTv: https://www.gsp.ro/sporturi/jocurile-olimpice/cat-a-platit-televiziunea-romana-pentru-drepturile-de-difuzare-a-jocurilor-olimpice-729388.html Bruce McAvaney will definitely be involved after all with this Olympics despite the Seven Network no longer enjoying the Australian Olympic broadcasting rights; he'll headline ABC Radio Local's Paris 2024 broadcast! He admits to feeling sad in not getting involved with the Paris Summer Olympics this time had this opportunity not came his way thanks to his wife Annie. Also really likes Australia's medal prospects in swimming and track and field in Paris. ABC Radio Local also presents the full ABC Sport Paris 2024 sportscasting lineup: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-15/bruce-mcavaney-joins-abc-radio-2024-paris-olympic-games/104099532 Nine Network Australia's Mike Sneesby banks on A$135 million advertising revenue and eventual profit hopes from the upcoming Paris 2024 coverage, both Olympic and Paralympic, on 9, 9Gem, Stan Sport streams, SMH, The Age, and Australian Financial Review newspapers and the multiple Nine Radio stations across Australia and on ABC Radio Local after spending A$305 million to grab the Australian rights with ad spots still available. Sneesby notes "a halo effect it has on other 9's shows, and increased subscription sign-ups and awareness" and improved broadcast and graphics technology meant far more would be done with far less. When Nine last broadcast the Olympics, in 2012 in London, the network took 254 people and produced 300 hours of live content. For Paris, Nine will be taking 123 to cover its television broadcast production–-so less than half the number of people on the ground and will produce over 5000 hours of programming just across Nine and 9Now. 16x times the footage more than when the Nine Network last broadcast the Summer Olympics 12 years ago with London. A little over 200 people will travel to Paris from Nine including 18 from Nine News, 18 from radio, 18 from the mastheads and another 20 to 25 from the executive team, Stan and other parts of Nine. Mr Sneesby himself will fly to Paris for one week--amidst the major Nine issues like the 200 job cuts, Peter Costello's resignation, and sexual harassment claims that Sneesby all declined to discuss: https://www.afr.com/companies/media-and-marketing/135m-and-5000-hours-paris-olympics-profitable-nine-ceo-says-20240712-p5jtav This despite The Australian reporting at the same time that Nine Entertainment could lose money from this Olympic broadcasting project with an estimate that the Paris Games could cost Nine around A$120 million, with $100 million allocated for the International Olympic Committee’s media rights (paywall--URL may not be correct below): https://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/media/nine-faces-olympic-games-blowout-as-rising-costs-and-ad-slump-bite/newsstory/58bc109040bf68e4e7d04b161d77fe70&memtype=anonymous&mode=premium&v21=GROUPB-Segment-2-NOSCORE&V21spcbehaviour=append#:~:text=Sources say Nine's total Games,Sneesby confident of breaking even.hours. General overview of Greece's ERT's Paris 2024 900-hour Paris 2024 coverage plans with one of the highlights being, right from the start, with Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antentokoumnpo leading the Greek delegation with the Greek flag on the first boat along the Paris Seine River after Greece qualified for the Olympic men's basketball tournament in its own Pireaus backyard.

In Paris, in Lille where the preliminary group stage matches are held in basketball, in Satoru, where the shooting events are scheduled and in Marseille, the center of sailing. With direct broadcasts and descriptions of the sports, with rich reports from the Mixed Zones, the Olympic Village, the Training Centers, as well as with interviews with the Greek athletes, the emissaries of the public radio and television will convey the pulse of the biggest sports event.

Link also includes two ERT promos. First one, 15 seconds long, highlighting the pagentry and footage of Greek Olympians in action with scenes of Paris. Second one also has the top ERT Paris 2024 sportscasting staff walking at Athens' Olympic Stadium--finding out who's who there--interspersed with multiple Olympic flame footage, top Greek Olympic moments, Paris landmarks shots, international athletes footage in various sports. Centering and set on France's Liberte, Egalite, and Fraternite values: https://www.ert.gr/promo2/i-ert-mazi-me-ta-101-meli-tis-elladas-stoys-olympiakoys-agones/ Latvians can catch the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic action on Latvijas Televizija with its 29-member Latvian Olympic delegation starting on July 26 at 19.30 Latvia time on LTV7 and LSM.lv will be able to watch Olympic Games Studio prior to the Opening Ceremony.

Sign language interpretation will be provided for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, as well as for the Olympic Games Studio. Live presentations of both ceremonies will take place on LTV1 and competitions where Latvian athletes will compete. Likewise, the public media portal LSM will provide a sense of presence from Paris – LSM.lv will provide live broadcasts of the Olympic Games, reviews of the most important daily sports events, a calendar of athletes' starts, as well as a wide range of news and other current information being available there at its section. After midnight, the program Olympic Games review will be broadcast on LTV7, the Latvijas Televizijas' sports channel where the most important events of the last day and all of the televised sports of the Olympic Games will be shown.

The competition will be commented live in Paris by Māris Rīmenis, Kaspars Timermanis, Anatolijs Kreipāns, Ieva Zunda, and Juris Valdovskis. Latvian viewers will be able to watch the most important broadcasts of the Olympic Games both live on LTV1, LTV7 and LSM.lv, and in repeats, not only on TV and computers, but also on mobile devices. The Olympic Games program is subject to last-minute changes due to reasons beyond LTV's control. The exact program will be available as soon as possible in the Program section of REplay.lv: https://www.lsm.lv/raksts/sports/olimpiska-kustiba/16.07.2024-parizes-olimpiskajam-spelem-seko-ar-verienu-latvijas-televizija.a561586/ https://www.delfi.lv/sports/19493909/other/120034854/latvijas-lidzjuteji-parizes-olimpiskas-speles-vares-verot-ltv#google_vignette On M4 Sport in Hungary, where it's certainly no stopping following EURO 2024 and Hungarian Formula 1 Grand Prix, the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics will start on July 24 afternoon with the first matches of the soccer tournament, and the next day the women's handball players will also be involved--including the first match of the Hungarian women's national team will be against hosts France on Thursday, July 25 from 7 pm (all times Hungary time). The long-awaited Paris 2024 opening ceremony will take place on Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. along a six-kilometer section of the Seine. From July 27, the big operation will start: in addition to M4 Sport, M4 Sport+ will also become an almost exclusive Olympic channel, so Hungarians can support their athletes at the same time. Three presenters will be waiting for the viewers on M4 Sport: Bence Mohay in the morning, Judit Berkesi during the day, and Andrea Petrovics-Mérei in the evening will help navigate and anchor the sports, and they will also give a summary of the day's events up to that point and what is expected and ahead. However, this is by no means the end of the public media's Olympic program stream, as on m4sport.hu you will be able to see live on five more digital channels those events that were not or only partially included on the two channels. These are broadcasts that do not require registration and can be watched for free, also predominantly with the Hungarians, as well as the handball and men's basketball tournaments. As the official home of the Hungarian Olympic team, M4 Sport continuously shows the most important Hungarian events in the pentathlon sports, so viewers will be able to enjoy every minute of the Paris Games with the interpretation of the most prepared commentators. Kossuth Rádió will once again broadcast live the competitions of Hungarian interest, and their extraordinary program Halló, itt Páriz can be followed from 9 am. What's new compared to previous Olympics is that this year, not only on Kossuth Radio, but also shown on the National Sports Radio, which started on June 14, the events will be broadcast in detail. In the Sports Morning starting at 8:40 a.m., Paris 2024 will be switched on live, and then in the program Körszützal, the radio's 12 representatives will continuously report on events of Hungarian interest throughout the day, so the listeners will not miss anything. One hundred years ago, Nemzeti Sport reported to its readers first-hand, from the location, about the 1924 Paris Olympics, as it has done every time since then. This year will be no different, but now Nemzeti Sport are also constantly informing readers about everything that is happening in Paris on its online platforms "with a strong on-site team, sports experts, we are preparing special, exclusive interviews for sports fans," said György Szöllősi, Nemzeti Sport newspaper's editor-in-chief and chairman of the MTVA Sports Coordination Editorial Committee. It will also be worthwhile to follow the dedicated internet and social interfaces of m4sport.hu and nemzitsport.hu, as they await Hungarian sports fans with numerous behind-the-scenes content and summaries of Hungarian interest: https://m.nemzetisport.hu/parizs2024/2024/07/a-magyarok-olimpiaja-a-kozmedia-minden-feluleten-kovetheto On a related piece, Nemzeti Sport publishes its Hungarian-centric Paris 2024 preview magazine. Peru's ATV Group of channels will air the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics starting with the Argentina vs. Morocco men's soccer match on July 24 live before the Opening Ceremony two days later. ATV, the official channel of the Olympic Games, and ATV.pe will simultaneously broadcast also LIVE 200 hours of Paris 2024 content, and coverage can be complemented by our publications (stories, reels and posts) through our official networks: https://www.atv.pe/noticia/paris-2024-lo-viviras-por-atv-y-atv-pe-con-toda-la-informacion-en-nuestro-especial-de-los-juegos-olimpicos Can also visit ATV Peru's special interactive Paris 2024 Olympics subportal website: https://www.atv.pe/paris2024?source=Internal&ref=Single+Content+Link Wikipedia's Spanish version of the 2024 Summer Olympics broadcasters list has TV 12 along with VTV as Honduras' entry for the broadcasters. Appears confirmed on social media. Another Canal 12 is indeed covering the Games in Central America. And that's from neighboring El Salvador. Canal 12 El Salvador, like with Repretel, VTV, Canal 10 Nicaragua, Canal 11 Guatemala, are all part of Grupo Albavision's family of TV channels. This same Wikipedia Spanish version indicates Canal 12's fellow channel Channel 11 TUTV will join it. Although we don't know as of yet what it'll do. CELTAtv adds the Claro Sports signal to both its analog and HD television grids, which is the official channel of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. In analogue, Claro Sports can be viewed on channel 19, while it is available in HD on channel 634: https://www.lu24.com.ar/celtatv-incorporo-a-su-grilla-la-senal-claro-sports-canal-oficial-de-los-juegos-olimpicos-paris-2024/#google_vignette 1 Quote

Channel One, VGTRK, and Match TV all unanimously reject showing it with 15 Russian and Belarussians individual athletes competing under a neutral banner--and the Duma welcomed this.

Despite the Lithuanians falling short of qualifying out of San Juan's OQT men's basketball, Kubilius will definitely cover the basketball. But he says other sports, especially when they have Lithuanian athletes involved and their starts, deserve broadcasting as well as the anchor sports like track and field, swimming, and gymnastics. He'll also cover team handball, judo, boxing, Greco-Roman or women's wrestling--all which are "quite familiar to me." With those sports, he's going to be calling them all in a Vilinius studio and not on location in Paris. Also there will be analysis experts recruited for this.

The Colombian representation at these games, with its talent and passion, will have special coverage. Fans of Colombian athletes will be able to follow each competition and ceremony closely, experiencing the Olympic excitement alongside their compatriots. Of the two, I think RCN Channel will cover the Opening and Closing Ceremonies: https://www.canalrcn.com/deportesrcn/colombianos-en-el-exterior/inauguracion-de-olimpicos-paris-2024-hora-y-donde-ver-187448#google_vignette Italy tends to come in a very late when it comes to formerly and more fully announcing its broadcasters' coverage plans.

Durban Sandshark Posted July 22, 2024 Report Posted July 22, 2024 So, is anyone planning to do any of the Paris 2024 recordings including all the preview stuff, documentaries, etc. worldwide? I still wish I could. Thought I had a chance France Television chief Dephine Ermotte is bullish about France Television's presentation of the Opening Ceremony that Laurent Delahousse, costume designer Daphné Bürki, and Alexandre Boyon will comment this Friday, July 26, 2024 from 7:30 pm live on France 2 that will reach "100% of the French" and will break French Olympic TV records since Barcelona 1992's Opening Ceremony--but Ernotte won't reveal much about the OC right now: https://www.ozap.com/actu/delphine-ernotte-la-ceremonie-d-ouverture-des-jeux-olympiques-de-paris-2024-marquera-l-histoire-de-la-television/644977 Speaking of teasing, I am aware that this France Television Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony teaser promo for France 2's telecast was already posted on the ceremonies thread. But it's certainly worth posting here on the media updates threads, given that we're now in this very Olympic week start. Don't know what's going on here. Maybe referencing to Paris' famed artistic haute couture blending with the Olympics. But that's the point, I guess. CBC in Canada officially kicks off its Paris 2024 coverage with programming, starting on Thursday, leading up to its live broadcast of Friday's Opening Ceremony at 12pm CT. Details about the programs shown on both CBC Gem and (usually later that day on) CBC come about with La Grande Seine actually being a two-parter on Thursday and Friday that detail the final 12 months of the Opening Ceremony organizing and preparation. Friday's part 2 will feature Ariel Halwani's live red carpet interviews. Paris 2024: Running A Revolution deals with the women's marathon and the struggle for gender equality endurance while following the path of two Canadian runners to get to be at the starting line. TOYOTA MAKE OR BREAK "takes us inside the lives of eight Canadian Olympic and Paralympic athletes throughout the intense final year of qualification for the Olympic Games Paris 2024. What they learn about themselves in this unforgiving process is a lesson for all: the power of sport to reveal character in victory and defeat, and the power of individuals to endure, live and grow" not unlike France Televisions' Champion(s) Season 4 doc series going on concurrently. The coverage kicks off with the all-Commonwealth Canada-New Zealand women's soccer group play match as the former seeks to defend its gold in embarking on a new era for them without the legend Christine Sinclair: As for the Opening Ceremony, the CBC invites Canadians (and some Americans near the border) with live coverage of the Opening Ceremony beginning at 12 p.m. CT (10 a.m. PT) on CBC, CBC Gem, CBC News Network, TSN, Sportsnet, CBC’s dedicated Paris 2024 website (cbc.ca/paris2024) and the CBC Paris 2024 app for iOS and Android devices. Beginning at 12 p.m. CT (10 a.m. PT) on July 26, the pre-Ceremony show, hosted by Paris Prime Live’s Scott Russell and CBC News Chief Correspondent Adrienne Arsenault, builds anticipation for the big event and includes highlights from the Opening Ceremony red carpet, featuring stars from the sports, arts and entertainment worlds. The pre-show concludes with the exclusive world premiere of THE GOLD WITHIN, an inspiring, original spoken-word performance by Ontario’s first Poet Laureate, Randell Adjei, and three-time Olympian Phylicia George. The six-minute piece celebrates the artistry of sport, while recognizing the highs and lows in the journey to greatness. Then at 1:30 p.m. ET (10:30 a.m. PT), the Toyota Olympic Games Primetime panel - Andi Petrillo, Waneek Horn-Miller, Perdita Felicien and Craig McMorris - unite to guide Canadians through the Opening Ceremony, reinvented for central Paris as a 6km parade route along the Seine River, sailing from Pont d'Austerlitz in the east to the Trocadéro in the west and showcasing some of the most iconic monuments in Paris along the way. Paris Tonight’s Ariel Halwani will be on the ground in Paris, sharing live updates as they happen across CBC Olympics’ social media accounts. A primetime broadcast of the Opening Ceremony will air on CBC and CBC Gem at 6 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT). Coverage of the Opening Ceremony will be presented in an accessible manner with closed captioning, described video and ASL integrations. Additionally, all of CBC’s primetime broadcast coverage will be available in described video: https://www.cbc.ca/mediacentre/press-release/cbcs-live-coverage-of-the-olympic-games-paris-2024-officially-kicks-off-thi CBC/SRC is another media broadcaster in Paris who is reducing its carbon footprint, amid demands from Paris organizers (and reduce production budget costs), by sending an in-Paris staff of 200 people, down half from Rio De Janeiro. But it will be flexible in the organization and being excited about fans allowed again to be part of the atmosphere for the full-on look and feel. With technology rapidly improving since then, it "allowing them to be strategically creative" in its coverage. Majority of CBC play-by-play action will be called from a Toronto studio with swimming, track and field and basketball the only sports emanating “live” with on-air crews calling the action from Paris, France. But still promises its Paris 2024 coverage, both conventional and full event/alternative/obscure, to be creative, elite, visually and audibly stunning, and exhaustive in its 22 hours of daily coverage: https://nationalpost.com/sports/olympics/cbc-plans-make-more-with-less-coverage-paris ORF SPORT+ aired a live Austrian Olympic Committee press conference ahead of Team Austria heading to Paris on July 9 in Vienna at 9am CET with the 2024 Austrian Olympic Team being presented and the Austria House project will be introduced in the Montsouris Pavilion.

The ORF team in Paris is represented by around 40 employees and eight camera teams. ORF Paris 2024 coverage actually starts with the Argentina-Morocco men's soccer match on ORF1 live at 14:45-15:50 Wednesday, as I checked the ORF TV guide. ORF SPORT+ bows in that same day with France-USA live at 20:55 CET preceded by the Argentina-Morocco highlights at 20:15--highlights of both games will be shows. There's also a 30-minute Sailing To The Games news and preview show and The Road To Tatami: Judo's Road To Paris series.

Told through the eyes of Lauren Rembi, Olympic Fencing Champion, we learn more about Coubertin’s vision and commitment that led to an enduring sporting legacy. Paris Olympic 1924 – first airing on 11 July, is a remastered film commemorating the centennial return of the Games to Paris, capturing a pivotal moment of unity and celebration post-World War I.

Around 10,500 athletes from over 200 nations will compete for the coveted precious metal. Swiss radio and television will accompany the world's largest sporting event every day from morning to night and will report on television for a total of around 240 hours from the French capital. On SRF2, TV audiences can immerse themselves in the world of the Olympic Games live for at least 14 hours of programming a day. On competition days, SRF is broadcasting live from 9 am to 11 pm. Depending on the competition program, the broadcast may start earlier or last longer and the program focuses specifically on the Swiss athletes. In advance, SRF takes their pulse - including in the Olympic Village. Decisions involving Switzerland are part of the live TV broadcast whenever possible. After the interview, the presenting duo Annette Fetscherin and Lukas Studer welcomes medal winners and other guests in the SRF studio. Like the studios of the other SRG regional language broadcasters, this is located at Trocadéro Square in the heart of Paris. This is also where the triathlons, road cycling races, marathons and 20km walking competitions take place. See even more sport from the Olympic Games, the best thing to do is use the "Olympia Player" on srf.ch/sport or in the SRF Sport app. Thanks to the streams from SRF, RTS and RSI as well as six other web live streams including live tickers, users can follow many events live even when they are not on TV and put together their own individual Olympic program. The Olympic content and diversity of the nine live streams is also available for individual viewing around the clock until the end of the Olympic Games.

Other sports documentaries focus on long jumper Simon Ehammer and the 4x100m women's relay team. "The Summer Olympics have never taken place closer to Switzerland. In addition, these are the first games in our time zone in twelve years. The anticipation is accordingly great, and our audience in front of the screens and radio can look forward to a concentrated dose of the Olympics in the coming weeks," says Susan Schwaller, editor-in-chief of SRF Sport: https://www.srf.ch/sport/paris-2024/in-eigener-sache-olympia-2024-srf-rundumservice-240-stunden-live-im-tv-neun-web-livestreams#:~:text=Am 26.

Now we got the full promo for RAI's Paris 2024 coverage, both for the Summer Olympics and Paralympics, seeing multiple athletes in various sports through Paris' skyline for Italy. Apparently, this also seems to be used for its segment intros used artificial intelligence. But no Acropolis and flame to be seen here. That song is now more used in full as we this . This is how many of the Italian cable/satelitte distributors will handle Eurosport Italia with its channels: Eurosport 1: The best of the Olympics, Eurosport 2: channel dedicated to the Azzurri, Eurosport 3: tennis, table tennis, badminton, Eurosport 4: Artistic and Rhythmic Gymnastics, Diving, Artistic Swimming, Eurosport 5: Soccer, Eurosport 6: Basketball, Eurosport 7: Combat Sports, Eurosport 8: Handball, Eurosport 9: Volleyball, Eurosport 4K: The Best of the Olympics Reiterating on my previous post on South Africa's SABC, SABC Sport will cover the bulk of the Paris 2024 South African free-to-air TV coverage with SABC 1, SABC 2, and SABC 3 all getting involved broadcasting some events. Still need to find out what are the 19 SABC radio stations doing this. Got it with its From Hope To Gold slogan: https://www.yomzansi.com/2024/07/22/sabc-paris-olympics-2024-streaming/ Radiosporten Sverige's Paris 2024 radio schedule starts July 25 at 14.03–14.59 Sweden/CET with the Olympic Pre-Progam and returns at 19.00–23.00 with the Sweden-Norway team handball game (actually at 21:00) in P4 with William Waldetoft and Gustav Jacobson. It'll present the Opening Ceremony at 19-23:00. Programming at P4 will fall under the Olympic Sports Extra banner in either 2 or 3 daily segments going from approximately 7:30-14:00, 13:45-23:30 time slots: https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/radiosporten-sander-tider-och-innehall-i-p4--2 Plus, there's now even a fresh batch of (usually) Swedish Olympic-themed documentaries at Radiosporten: https://sverigesradio.se/radiosportendokumentar Na:Sport will broadcast the Olympics 24 hours a day for RTVS in highest full HD resolution in well over 200 hours. From the beginning of the morning competitions until the end of the evening competitions, we will offer viewers as much live content as possible," explains Pavol Gašpar, acting head of the sports editorial office. "Our absolute priority will be sports with Slovak participation, among the lowest teams Slovakia sent in its history. For example, thanks to Richard Tury, we will be focusing on skateboarding on a larger surface for the first time. Subsequently, we choose traditional Olympic attractions, such as swimming, athletics, or tournaments in court/team sports. Another priority is the final disciplines or matches, so that we can show as many Olympic champions across sports as possible." So how does RTVS prepares for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics broadcast? The RTVS Paris 2024 program will also be supplemented with special formats as it prepares for Paris 2024. Spectators can look forward to Sports Studies, which will primarily focus on the Slovak national team in Paris. Special editions are also prepared with sports experts during broadcasts from sports where the Slovak national team has the highest chances of winning medals. The Olympic Daily will be a strictly news format, where viewers will also receive an information summary from sports that will not be broadcast live in Slovakia. Slovak Television and Radio continues to work closely with the Slovak Olympic and Sports Committee. In this broadcast, it will offer a 10-minute summary of the events at the Olympic Festival in Kuchajd every day. Marcel Merčiak, Pavol Gašpar, Ľuboš Hlavena, Vladimír Genda, Alfonz Juck, Stanislav Ščepán, Peter Zagiba, Martin Pohanič and Tomáš Košec are the commentary team right on the stage. There will also be experts. Slovakian athletes in particular will be addressed directly at the venue by Slovak Television reporters Patrik Mitas, Samuel Brečka, Tomáš Zagiba, Ivan Janko and Tomáš Batiz. The main faces of the RTVS Olympic broadcast from the Bratislava studio will be proven studio moderator hosts Oľga Konečná and Tomáš Kotlárik. In the studio entrances, the moderators will connect live with our representatives, coaches and other members of the Slovak Olympic team. "37 people are traveling to Paris, while leaving dozens of other colleagues in Mlynská dolina. Those who stay at home are not only a support team for RTVS' Olympics coverage, but they also have to take care of the broadcasting of, for example, the preliminary rounds of European Cup competitions, which is another focal part of Slovak Television's summer sports broadcast," also explains Pavol Gašpar. The Olympic Games in Paris will have a significant impact on the broadcasting of Radio Slovakia. Slovak Radio is sending a five-member radio team to the French capital, consisting of Matúš Čunderlík, Svetlana Barátová, Zlatica Mokrá, Adam Bohuš and Martin Kaigl. The editors will report directly from the venue of the event, primarily on the performances and results of the Slovak Olympians, through live inputs, interviews with athletes, with members of the implementation teams or with the leadership of the Slovak expedition to the Olympics. There will be behind-the-scenes journalism, interesting facts and analyses. In the event of an interesting result or medal success of our representatives, live inputs from individual Olympic sports venues will also be included in the broadcast. The Olympic studio will supply Radio Slovakia broadcasts with current summaries in Rádiožurnály and Športžurnály directly from Paris. The Olympic broadcast will be complemented by live inputs to the hourly news and throughout the day as part of the streaming. Deputy General Director Igor Slanina is also looking forward to the Olympic Games project broadcast by Slovak Television and Radio: "At Slovak Television and Radio, everything is carefully prepared for the Olympic Games." Everyone here are great professionals. I am convinced that the many years of experience that colleagues from the Sports Section have will translate into highly professional processing and mediation of Olympic performances for viewers and listeners. As always in our house, the TV will be on very often. I certainly don't have time to watch all the sports, but I like to watch what I can at home. I wish our athletes to enjoy it and win many medals for Slovakia. We will all keep our fingers crossed for them." A special sub-page is already available on the public broadcaster's website, where viewers can find information about Slovakian Olympic representation, current information from events in Paris, the complete program of the Olympics and interim results, as well as live broadcasts. All sports broadcasts that will be broadcast on television will also be available on the web, also in the highest possible Full HD resolution: https://strategie.hnonline.sk/news/media/96160378-prichadza-dalsia-sportova-udalost-roka-z-letnych-oh-24-v-parizi-prinesie-stvr-stovky-hodin-vysielania Additional info has arrived from ERT Greece in its anticipated multiplatform Paris 2024 900+hour coverage across its media realms.

After checking a Serbian TV guide for this week, I can tell you RTS 1 will also show the Argentina-Morocco and France-USA men's soccer matches live at 14:50 and 20:50 Serbian time, respectively on Wednesday. Thursday will see a live Serbian Olympic Committee press conference at 13-13:45: https://www.rts.rs/lat/rts/rts-predstavlja/najnovije/5491240/letnje-olimpijske-igre-2024-na-rts-u.html Miguel Osovi and Gustavo Kuffner speak exclusively one-on-one in-studio with Argentina's athletes and coaches who will represent the Argentine delegations over in Paris, France in co-hosting TV Publica Argentina Canal 7's Olympic Fire.

His team left from Bogota bound for Paris earlier today: BeIN Sports has unveiled its comprehensive coverage strategy for the upcoming Olympic Games Paris 2024, which will take place from July 26 to August 11. The multinetwork plans to broadcast the event across 17 channels, offering more live Olympic coverage than any other television network worldwide and be extensively covered by BeIN Sports, providing nearly 100% live coverage of the events, in continuing to be the premier platform for providing and showcasing the world’s biggest sporting events to the MENA audience. Special attention will be given to Arab athletes participating in the Games, reflecting the numerous qualifiers from the MENA region. BeIN’s pre-event coverage actually began on July 19 with a nightly preview show, Welcome to Paris, airing at 22:30 MECCA time on BeIN Sports 1. Live coverage of preliminary football matches, including teams from Morocco, Egypt and Iraq, as well as rugby sevens events, will start on July 24. The Opening Ceremony on July 26 will be broadcast live at 20:30 MECCA. From July 27, all Olympic events will be broadcast live across 17 dedicated BeIN Sports channels, with commentary available in both Arabic and English, which is too bad that French, given there's a couple of French language BeIN Sports channels, aren't a part of this. The main Arabic studio coverage will run for 14 hours daily from 10:00 to 00:00 MECCA, followed by a Daily Highlights program in both languages. Premium events will be available on BeIN’s 4K Olympic channel, the only 4K sports channel in the region. BeIN’s Paris 2024 coverage will feature more than 65 regional and international pundits, including 10 on-the-ground reporters in Paris and 42 expert Arabic commentators. This talented team will provide real-time updates and in-depth analysis in both Arabic and English. The coverage will also include expert studio analysis from a distinguished panel of over 10 world-class analysts, including Oussama Mellouli, a three-time Olympic medalist, Inès Boubakri, a Rio 2016 bronze medalist, and Ahmad Abughaush, Jordan’s first Olympic medalist. The Arabic coverage will be anchored by equally talented presenters such as Asya Abdullah, Jamal Alhasni, Areej Sleem, Mohammad Kidan, Jehad Yousef, Hala Mashharawi and Shaima Alhammadi. All potentially using BeIN Sports' state-of-the-art world-class studios complete with Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies, making them "fully prepared to deliver an exceptional viewing experience for this landmark event in the international sporting landscape and ensuring viewers across the region don’t miss a moment of the action.” To complement the extensive live broadcasts, BeIN Sports has produced several original docuseries. These include Do You Know ”Olympics”, premiering on July 21, which explores various Olympic topics. Other beIN originals include Qatari Athletes, Road to Paris 2024, highlighting the inspiring stories of Qatari Athletes, Olympic History and Records, featuring exclusive interviews with Arab athletes, and Iraq U23 Road to Paris 2024, Egypt U23 Road to Paris 2024 highlighting each country’s national football team’s Olympic path. Post-games, a special documentary, Best of Paris 2024, will air on 18 August. BeIN Sports’ digital coverage will feature a 10-day countdown on social media, highlighting Arab countries and athletes, a Google One-box with medal counts, dedicated playlists on YouTube and Facebook, daily interactive polls, and a dedicated page on the BeIN Sports website in both Arabic and English.

Weekends at 12.05pm Hong Kong time: https://www.rthk.hk/radio/radio3/programme/cityofsport?lang=en Starting July 24, Globo and SporTV are making serious changes to its original Paris 2024 broadcasting plans as the following Thursday July 25th, Globo will show the Paris 2024 debuts of Brazil women's handball (versus Spain at 9am Brazil time) and soccer (versus Nigeria at 2pm) teams, with Natalia Lara narrating the soccer along with Ana Thaís Matos, Alline Calandrini and Cristiane, the Olympic top scorer, providing analyzing commentary. Because of this, there will be casualties in several programs getting suspended or have reduced editions to accommodate this new Olympic coverage. “Encontro com Patricia Poeta” and “Sessão da Tarde” will not be shown on specific days: they will not air on July 25, 29 and 30, and on August 1, 2, 6, 7 and 9; “Mais Você”, by Ana Maria Braga, will also not air on July 30 and August 1, 6, 7 and 9.

Durban Sandshark Posted July 23, 2024 Report Posted July 23, 2024 Cambodia's Paris 2024 broadcasting coverage will be covered by CBS--no, not obviously that CBS--the Cambodian Broadcasting System will offer these Summer Olympic Games to its Cambodian audience via CTN, MyTV and CNC, as well as its CBS Sports digital platform, starting July 24 with men's soccer games: https://cbssport.com.kh/24307/ NBC SPORTS NEXT'S SPORTS ENGINE PLAY LAUNCHES NEW KIDS' GUIDE TO THE PARIS 2024 SUMMER OLYMPIC AND PARALYMPIC GIVING FAMILIES A FREE AND FUN WAY TO ENJOY THE TV AND STREAMING COVERAGE On SRC/Radio-Canada's and RDS' French side, Martin Labrosse and Céline Galipeau will present the Opening Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games alongside Jacinthe Taillon and the special appearance of France Beaudoin . They will be joining us live on ICI TÉLÉ, ICI TOU.TV, Radio-Canada.ca and RDS at 1 p.m. EDT for the pre-ceremony followed by the ceremony, which will take place from 1:30 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. EDT (7:30 p.m. to 11:15 p.m., Paris time). This program will be rebroadcast in the evening on all Radio-Canada video platforms and on RDS starting at 5:30 p.m. CT. Radio-Canada will provide live webcasts of the Ceremony in French, Quebec Sign Language (LSQ) and described video on ICI TOU.TV, Radio-Canada.ca/paris2024 and the Radio-Canada JO Paris 2024 mobile app. The Ceremony will also be available live and on demand for 24 hours on ICI TOU.TV. Canadians viewers are invited to experience the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony at a time that suits them on the platform of their choice. That behind the scenes of the Opening Ceremony documentary La grande Seine will be presented in two parts, just like on the English CBC, on ICI RDI, on July 24 and 25, from 7 p.m. to 8 pm, on ICI TOU.TV , on ICI TÉLÉ, on July 26 at 11 p.m. , and on ICI ARTV, on July 27 at 4 p.m. Paris 2024: daily on ICI TÉLÉ, ICI TOU.TV and RDS. Jean-Patrick Balleux will host that Canada-New Zealand all-Commonwealth women's soccer group game on Thursday to kick off the TV side with RDS at 8:30-11am. Olympic Dream, Les Olympiens, and La Releve are the French-Canadian Olympic docs: https://presse.radio-canada.ca/television/13332/paris-2024-ceremonie-d-ouverture-en-direct-a-radio-canada-et-rds/ Hannu-Pekka "Hoopi" Hanninen, a legend in Finnish Olympics TV sportscasting dating back to 1980, and Juhavaltteri Salminen will co-host the Finnish transmission of both the Paris 2024 Opening and Closing Ceremonies for TV5, Eurosport Finland, and HBO MAX commercial-free. YLE's TV2 will transmit their own version of both, should be noted: https://press-warnerbrosdiscovery-fi.translate.goog/post/hannu-pekka-hanninen-ja-juhavaltteri-salminen-selostavat-pariisi?_x_tr_sl=fi&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc It looks as though it will only be Televisa that will be broadcasting the Mexican free-to-air TV portion of Paris 2024 despite TV Azteca's ambitious alliance with Claro Sports and the 4000-hours it was to get involved with and the accompanying press conference. Imagen Television made no announcement about any plans for the upcoming Summer Olympics despite being previously mentioned. Having more than multiple rival TV networks/channels in major Latin America nations to cover the Olympics is certainly nothing new no too long ago. Look at Brazil's Olympic broadcasting history Claro Sports teams up with W Sports Radio to broadcast the Paris 2024 Olympics in Mexico and likely the rest of Latin America excluding Brazil: https://www.clarosports.com/olimpicos/paris-2024/claro-sports-en-w-radio-llega-a-paris-estamos-listos-para-los-juegos-olimpicos/ SKY Open NZ will become the Olympic Gold Channel starting Wednesday NZT at 8am-3pm, featuring New Zealand, with aims of advancing out of group play and building upon being last summer's WWC co-hosts, taking on defending gold medalists Canada in women's soccer. I'm sure The Crowd Goes Wild will be involved somewhere on SKY NZ. CazeTV lands Samsung as the latest sponsor for its official Paris 2024 broadcast, where the complete coverage will be on Channel 2000 on its TV Plus' streaming platform in Brazil: https://news.samsung.com/br/cazetv-no-samsung-tv-plus-e-uma-das-emissoras-oficiais-dos-jogos-olimpicos-de-paris-2024 Georgia's First Channel has a couple of Olympic TV documentary previews called Guide To the Olympics, Paris Countdown Has Stared, Guide Tot The Olympics, and From Athens to Athens. None of them would last more than an hour in run programming. On Tuesday July 17 at 17:00 Georgia time, it also aired the live 1-hour long Georgian athletes farewell and celebration with the reciting of the Olympic Oath. On Wednesday, the Paris 2024 Olympic programming kicks off with Uzbekistan-Spain men's soccer match live at 17:00-19:10 and then returns for more soccer with the USA taking on hosts France at 23-1:05. Live Friday at 21:30, the Georgia First Channel will broadcast the Opening Ceremony from Paris, likely with Timeout's Giorgi Cholabeishvili, Luka Chochua, Keti Khatiashvili as hosts being there for 30 minutes earlier. The Timeout people will come in at 11 before the daily competition starts with basketball, swimming, wrestling, fencing, women's team handball, boxing, and judo with a news breaking in for 30 minutes at 21 from 11-1:00 during the weekend. From 11-20:20 on Wednesday, First Channel Sports will start take care of the bulk of the immense Paris 2024 coverage sevens rugby and Thursday at 11-16:50 with Slovenia-Denmark/Netherlands-Angola women's team handball and men's 7s rugby.
