Olympics media: Delayed start for NBC, ad overload (Yahoo Sports)

NBC is proud of showing every Olympics competition live online, and many on TV. The ceremony, narrated by Matt Lauer, Hoda Kotb and Meredith Vieira, was delayed by one hour on the U.S. East Coast, four hours out West. Much like four years ago when there was a longer delay from London, the move drew complaints on social media.
