Changes in Us Grand Prix Coverage

[Nicki]

According to the USFSA website(http://usfsa.org/Event TV Schedule.asp) the next two GP events will be shown on ABC instead of ESPN. We will also only get two hours of coverage, as opposed to ESPN's three hours of coverage.

Thanks for the info.

That would explain why I wound up with 3 hours of billiards off of ESPN instead of Cup of China last week. I think they must have changed the programming after the newspaper's TV guide was printed, because the TV guide last week still said that ESPN would be covering the skating (which is why I set the VCR and wound up with the billiards). :twisted:

My local ABC station decided not to broadcast any of the last two weeks of the grand prix, instead prefering to show infomercials. I can't believe that this last minute switch has done much to help with figure skating ratings.
