Olympic Coverage on FIOS

Just got FIOS and still baffled by all the offerings. I am trying to figure out what channels carry the Olympics besides NBC 4.

I found an Channel 99 and 103, but they don't carry too much and they're duplicates of each other and most of it is the athlete stories that they just keep repeating over and over!

Anyone know other channels with coverage and what time?

TIA!

USA network is owned by NBC and also has coverage

eta: NBC paid $90 million for exclusive rights to broadcast the games. so they pretty much "own it"

There is coverage on CNBC and MSNBC overnight. You can get a schedule on the NBC website or on Newsday.com.

Thank you! I knew that had to be more than just Channel 4. Thanks!

Re: Olympic Coverage on FIOS

if you have an HDTV, there are also a couple of channels in the 580s that will have coverage this week.
