Ragging on lovelocke? Stop it.
His direct answer to your questions was that
“the world” watched Michael (note spelling) Phelps on TV. He then went on to wonder
how anyone could ask such an odd question as yours. Of course anyone who possibly could was watching. Then, just to be friendly, he told you about how, long-long ago before
Everyone got a tv, McDonald’s would give out free burgers to celebrate U.S. gold medals. Is that really too complicated?
Pfff
Lovelocke is so smart and fun.
Just pay attention and I think you can follow his train of thought.
