[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do the commentators talk so so much about the athletes' families and show them at every moment the athlete competes. What if someone was estranged from parents? Not married? Childless? Do they matter?[/quote] I personally know an Olympian’s family and they had local news bombard them once their athlete qualified. They got a questionnaire from NBC that they use to gauge interest from families and find out if there’s a good angle. I guess some families want the spotlight, some have compelling stories, and some don’t want to look like they’re not supportive. Im glad I’m not in that situation! [/quote]
