Anyone watch the Ducks / Devils game tonight?

Did anyone else watch it on ABC (west coast) ?

I want to know why if ABC is owned by Disney that they have announcers who were for the Devils? You'd think they would be pulling for the Ducks? Now if I was back east i would think they might be more slanted towards the Devils but still.

This is a concept that while practiced in sports broadcasting has yet to find its way to the mainstream media.

It's called "Unbiased coverage".

Pointing out the strengths of the team that's winning is NOT rooting for that team.

They are the local team here so it should have been biased coverage. Basketball & Baseball games are that way and I believe football was too when we had teams. (raiders/rams)

But my main gripe was Disney owns them, so I expected them to hype. Hell if I owned them I would have ran a commerical about ordering season tickets with this 800# a few times each game they televised.
