Comcast boss on Summer Olympics coronavirus concerns: "There should be no losses should there not be an Olympics"

The Hollywood Reporter

Comcast chairman and CEO Brian Roberts says he's "optimistic" the Tokyo Summer Olympics will happen and that NBC's plans are "full steam ahead," despite concerns over the coronavirus. But in the event the Olympics is canceled this year, he says NBC has contractual protection and insurance. "There should be no losses should there not be an Olympics," he said. "(There) just wouldn't be a profit this year." Meanwhile, IOC spokesperson Mark Adams was asked if there was a deadline to make a decision on canceling the Olympics. “We’ve made a decision. The decision is the Games go ahead," he responded.
