team and all-round individual events in the gymnastics at the 2008 Beijing Olympics will be held in the morning, although
the individual apparatus events will be contested in evening sessions. Morning finals in Beijing mean prime-time audiences
in the U.S. for NBC, which paid $3.55 billion for the exclusive North American media rights to the 2000-2008 Games.

2006 Oct 06 - US champion Nastia Liukin injured her ankle in training and is not
expected to compete in the all-around competition at the world gymnastics championships this month in Denmark.
Liukin, the 16-year-old, two-time national champion, rolled her right ankle while working out on a trampoline on Sunday
at the U.S. trials in Texas. She was placed on the seven-woman roster on Thursday, though both she and national team
coordinator Martha Karolyi said they think her availability will be limited to uneven bars — and maybe only in team finals.

2006 Sep 28 - The International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Beijing Olympic organizers (BOCOG)
on Wednesday said the schedules of gymnastics finals of the 2008 Olympic Games are still uncertain.
A competition schedule provided by BOCOG at the world press briefing indicates that gymnastics finals will be held in the
morning, instead of at night time as previous Games did. The day competition schedule is yet to be confirmed by the IOC.
The move from night time to day time was required by US rights holder NBC, which will allow it to air those events live
in prime time. Broadcasters in Australia and Asia have protested the change.
