Olympics Alter MSNBC Schedule


It is exciting times around the world as the Olympics begin today. The opening ceremonies are actually taking place right now, but will be delayed and broadcasted in primetime on NBC, beginning at 6:30 central. Because of NBC's plans to air the Olympics on all its networks, MSNBC will not have daytime news during the Olympic games. MSNBC will run Olympic coverage from 4 am - 4 pm daily, followed by a daily wrap-up show hosted by MSNBC anchor Tamron Hall.


Normal MSNBC Primetime coverage will begin at 6 p.m., with Hardball. The remainder of the primetime schedule will continue like usual.
