It is still disingenuous to say the Calgary Herald said this. Only unnamed editorials officially come from the Calgary Herald. You could say "Canwest columnist from Calgary:..." or "Victoria Times Colonist:..."

In anycase, who cares?

As for ratings (share of tv audience, full 2 weeks):
Nagano 19%
Salt Lake City 38%
Torino 12.3%

I am sure NBC hopes that being in a good time zone will cause SLC like ratings, but I doubt it. SLC was built up as a nation coming together after the 9/11 attacks, and it is unlikely these games will reach such lofty heights in the USA.
