I find it utterly appaling the channel 7 coverage of the Australian Open 2010. I am a Brisbane viewer and not only do I have to watch the evening live games an hour behind, unable to use another media source in case of getting the score ahead of time; but I was today watching the Mayer v. Del Potro match only for it to go into an ad and then start playing Home Improvement - WHAT??? Why would I sit and watch a match for it only to conclude with an awful American sitcom. If you're going to broadcast a live sporting event, especially one as prestigious as the Australian Open then it should be treated with the respect it deserves, as do the viewers. Sort it out channel 7.
