Well done to the NZ Paralympians. Did us all really proud. I have to agree though with Ms Roche. the NZ mainstream broadcasters were woeful in not carrying any live coverage of the games. This was the 1st sold out Paralympics in the history of the games. 2.8m tickets were presold. Why on earth TVNZ or TV3 or even Prime didn't think this a worthy enough event to provide live coverage for is beyond me. Having been lucky enough to be in the Olympic Stadium last Saturday experiencing the atmsophere of 80,000 cheering on Paralyimpians you get the feeling NZ broadcasters missed a trick there.
