Technically, there will be no major innovations at the Seoul Games. These will be the first Olympics telecast in stereo, and, as at the Winter Games in Calgary, several tiny cameras will be mounted in unlikely spots -- at the top of the bar during the pole-vault competition, for example. NBC's biggest technical feat, however, will simply be to get the whole shebang ready in time. Problems started in February, when the network's 60,000-sq.-ft. broadcast center in Seoul was completed -- six weeks late. Network crews have been working hectic twelve-hour days to make...

By far the most ambitious upcoming project is El Pueblo/L.A., a 14- hour mini-series being planned by CBS for telecast in 1989.

...town meeting was especially delicate to organize. Palestinian audience members were bused to the theater for the 6:30 a.m. telecast only after special approval came from Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin. A number of potential Palestinian panelists refused to participate. Speaking for the Palestinians, they claimed, is a role that belongs only to the P.L.O. The three representatives who did appear insisted that the wall be set up and avoided even looking at the Israelis for most of the show...
