ESPN.com included a column about how the network has to take on "guerrilla" status at the Olympics because of NBC's exclusive rights to broadcast the Games. NBC is the only US network allowed to film in the mixed zones at the venues, although other TV reporters with accreditation can enter the zone without a recording device.
The highlight of the column is a quote from ESPN Olympic producer Arty Berko: "It'd be a hoot to just once be on the inside looking out. I probably wouldn't get anything done in a mixed zone — I'd be like a kid at Disneyland."
