If you want to get a real sense for how media functions on the ground during such a crazy news period as the Olympics, check out <a href="http://choppermurman.blogspot.com">Murray's blog, aka Chopper Murman</a>. These guys are working super hard and going through a lot, and for such a sustained amount of time that the fatigue levels are astounding.</p> <p>Murray has been doing a fantastic job of chronicling the experience with words and pictures on his blog, which he started right at the beginning of the Torino experience. I like this post about filming a typical Italian family's reaction to the open ceremonies (since non-rights holders can't cover ANY events that take place directly at official Olympic venues). They ended up editing the shots directly at the dinner table -- check out <a href="http://choppermurman.blogspot.com/2006/02/opening.html">The Opening</a>: </p> BC Canada Place Chopper Murman CTV media Non Rights Holding Electronic Media Torino 2006 Sun, 19 Feb 2006 15:49:29 -0800
