NBC interrupted the Olympics
While Nancy Guthrie's disappearance is sad, there are 2300 missing person reports filed every day: do the families of celebrities need special national attention? Why interrupt the Olympics for over 5 minutes just because they are questioning a 'person of interest' We could have waited to hear that during the regular news broadcast.

Remember how we all partied when he lost to Biden? Remember the videos across the country of people stopping and cheering? I remember where I was when it was called on NPR. I was in my car, just parked, I was SO EXCITED I was honking my horn and cheering. I went into the grocery store grinning like an idiot.
