Article on why everything seems to be going on at midnight local time and how NBC and their second rate crappy coverage controls the Olympics.
No wonder no one wants to host anymore. I can't imagine being a regular Japanese person excited to have this huge world event in your city and all the main events are over right around the time you wake up every day because some tv network halfway around the world forced the ioc to schedule everything at stupid times.

But it'll be back to mornings for the next Olympics four years from now in 2020. They're in Tokyo, where prime events will need to happen between 7 and 9 a.m. local time, if they're going to hit prime time back in the U.S.
