It appears that NBC is doing some evil acts at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, having the only Starbucks store open. However, it is in their cafeteria and only employees apart of the television company can have access to the Starbucks products.
Sponsorship rules at Olympics make it so that mostly all the journalists can have only coffee from places like McDonald's, not Starbucks. NBC, of course, isn't playing these games and they have others jealous.

NBC has the only Starbucks in the 1,100-mile radius of Sochi, per Dejan Kovacevic, so of course people are going to be pissed.
NBC isn't complaining, though.
