Finch Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 Many of the replies here (particularly those from non-commentators) seem to assume that the commentary would be recorded live. However, I would have thought that would be very very hard to arrange, and in fact the commentary would be time-delayed as well. Don't forget thati) Most commentators are miles, tens of miles, thousands of miles away from the action, sitting in their living room. If they are going to watching the event 'live' then you immediately have a security problem. Agreed it's more containable, but if you are going to take this seriously you probably are going to insist that they sign confidentiality agreements etc and would then be potentially liable if there was a leak. I wouldn't want to be in that position. ii) Many commentators are recruited 'live' during or just before the broadcast. People either don't like to sign up in advance, or fail to turn up. If I log on, it's often to watch vugraph. If I log on to watch vugraph and I'm not scheduled to commentate, I usually get asked if I want to. How are all the potential commentators know if there's a broadcast on if it's not being shown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
