Are you for real? Is Sonia in the men's 100m? Or the Heptathlon?
Or the Triple Jump? Or any event other than the 5k? Well that's all we're interested in, so that's all RTE are covering?

I missed the start of the sports news at T time. Was Gillian O'Sullivan's medal mentioned?

Clueless.

Well here we keep switching between two French channels and one German one. Excellent coverage and the Germans in particular interview every German athlete no matter how they perform. Everybody seems to get more or less equal treatment, whether a star or an up and coming athlete.
