Has NBC focused too much of their 2018 Winter Olympics snowboarding coverage on Shaun White?
Shaun White, a three-time Olympic gold medalist in snowboarding, is one of the most popular athletes in the world. He is also one of the most marketable, and NBC has made him the centerpiece of their 2018 Winter Olympics snowboarding coverage.
But has NBC focused too much on White? Some critics say that the network has ignored other snowboarders who have just as compelling stories. They point to Chloe Kim, a 17-year-old who won the gold medal in the women's halfpipe, and Red Gerard, an 18-year-old who won the gold medal in the men's slopestyle.
NBC has defended its coverage, saying that White is the biggest star in snowboarding and that he deserves the attention. The network also says that it has given plenty of coverage to other snowboarders, including Kim and Gerard.
Ultimately, it is up to viewers to decide whether or not NBC has focused too much on White. But there is no doubt that White is a huge star, and he is likely to continue to be a major focus of NBC's Olympic coverage for years to come.
