Table Tennis on TV (1)

I would like to understand why some countries are very shy at showing Table Tennis on TV as if they were "ashamed" to show it. Having said that, the BBC was happy about the positive reaction of the public regarding TT. Nevertheless, they did not show neither the men's single final nor the women's; not even 5 minutes of it. What do we have to do to make sure TT has its place amongst the 'big' sports? After all, there are more than 180 countries where this sport is played. I went to watch the TT event at the Games, and I can assure anybody that the atmosphere was absolutely fantastic. Any ideas or suggestions, please post your message. Roger |
