I probably watched more of the Olympics than the average viewer and I was curious about whether news back here in the states impacted the amount of coverage. My search and dashboard showed a drop in media mentions during the second half of the games. My real job needs me to focus on other dashboards, reports and projects this week, but if I were the coms manager of USOC, NBC Sports or the IOC, I would want to go back and do a few other searches to see if coverage of the 2024 Presidential Race increased as coverage of the Olympics decreased. My dashboard got me very curious about that question and to also do a closer news vs. social breakdown on games. It seems news coverage was a lot more positive in my search than the discussion around some of the controversies (opening ceremonies, women’s boxing and yes… Canada soccer) felt on social. #meltwatercommunity #mOlympian2024
