Olympic Equestrian TV Coverage in the Cleveland Area
July 22, 2008
NBC paid a massive amount of money to get sole rights for covering the Olympics, and has recently posted the stations and schedules on their Olympic website. Go to the NBC Olympics TV and Listings section of their website, input your zip code and cable/satellite provider, and get a specific Olympic TV schedule for your area. You can browse by sport so that you don’t have to read every listing to dig up the equestrian events.
If you are in the Cleveland area and have DirectTV like I do, here’s where you can see Olympic dressage, eventing, and show jumping television coverage:

Oxygen is not covering any of the equestrian events (thru direct TV sattelite). How can I find out when NBC will be broadcasting the equestrian events?
