Tokyo Paralympics Coverage

Good to see Matt White fronting the coverage

[TV.Cynic]

Interesting to see Jopel Dry reporting as well.

Wonder why they’ve gone and got a freelancer to host the coverage and not use internal people. Interesting decision with that.

[Apple75]

While it’s disappointing that they have delayed the opening ceremony, it might be beneficial since there might be more people watching and interested as stated Joh

New Paralympics promo aired on Seven today.

@Andrew

I’m interested to know what benefit you’re going to get from seeing the ceremony live?

I understand if it were the competition itself, live sport is important.

And I understand if seven was showing the ceremony, for example - the next day, would be unacceptable.

But a 15 minute or even an hour delay is not going to make a huge difference

Totally agree. It’s not a big deal.

[VictorianSun]

Do we know who will be commentating the ceremonies besides Joh? In Rio, it was Steve Robillard, Gerald de Kock, Lawrence Mooney and Annabelle Williams.

[MichaelPower]

I hope the commentary during the paralympic opening ceremony is more tasteful than what we got during the olympic opening ceremony

[JohnsonTV]

News Corp will publish a 8-page Paralympics viewing guide in Herald Sun, Daily Telegraph, The Courier-Mail and The Advertiser tomorrow.

EDIT: here is the cover

[BigVic]

Great to see Paralympics covered on News Corp mastheads. Let the Games begin

Note there were a couple of errors in the schedules from Seven that I corrected. There may be some more plus adjustments depending on AFL coverage and also potentially Racing.

Great work compiling all that for us and visitors Cynic:)

Amazing coverage, considering it’s not the main Olympics and how Paralympics have been treated previously, even last time (although Rio was better). Hope it’s watched, seems to be ‘what the doctor ordered’ so to speak with everything going on right now, lockdowns a huge bonus again.

will the Olympic streams end on 7 plus today then the Tokyo 2020 Olympic replays

[newsfan1aussie]

will SEN cover the Opening Ceremony tonight?

[VictorianSun]

No they are not. I don’t think SEN has radio rights

[newsfan1aussie]

Ok. Who does? Doing night shift and want to record it.

[VictorianSun]

I assume it will be on 7plus. Not sure there is a radio broadcaster
