I don't know if you mean by "shooting" sports riflery or archery.  I worked
at the Games (as a volunteer) in computer scoring at the Men's Archery 
Competition.  Needless to say, I had a lot of friends back home watching
TV hoping to see me.  However, after the four days of the Archery competition
were over, all my friends said they had seen NOOOO coverage of the 
archery event.  Some of my fellow volunteers who lived in the southern
California area said that their friends or family had seen "some"
coverage from their local ABC stations, but that's it.

Over the four days of the event I saw at least 3 ABC camera crews at the venue.
I don't know what they did with their footage, but a number of my friends
here in the U.S. didn't get to see it as far as I can tell.
