TLDRNBC's broadcast of the Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Milan cut out the crowd's booing of US Vice-President JD Vance, as reported by The Guardian. The hostile reception for Vance was audible on Canadian broadcaster CBC's feed, but NBC's American audience was spared this reaction. This incident follows a similar move at the US Open in September, where broadcasters were asked not to show the crowd's reaction to President Donald Trump.
