NBC Runs Today Promo Spoiling Outcome Of Race They Were About To Air

NBC can't even do tape delay properly, it seems. Tonight's heavily-hyped broadcast of Missy Franklin's 100 backstroke became a moot point after the Peacock Network ran the above promo for Today...in the commercial break before the race actually aired. If you're one of the fools who actually avoids learning about outcomes until you can watch them on TV 12 hours after the fact, well, you deserve what you get. But this is still yet another NBC boner in what's turned out to be a London Olympics full of them.
