How come Phoenix, Arizona does not know Jordin Sparks won American Idol? Why the delay in time zone?

Why are they out of the loop-hole on televised programs that are shot live? But how does Hollywood, CA know about Jordin's win before Phoenix considering the fact they are in the same time zone?

  1. Most of Arizona does not have Daylight Savings Time so they are currently on the same time as California.
  2. I know what you are saying, I live here in Phoenix.. and I dont;t know. I think it's so it's the same, so when everyone else has daylight savings, the time of the shows dont go all crazy with in 1 day.
  3. I work in LA but live in Phoenix (fly to LA every week). Shows that are on at 7 AZ time are on at 8 here. So people in AZ knew one hour before CA.
  4. TV networks use two feeds; those that originate in NYC & those that originate in LA The NYC feed covers The Eastern and Central time zones The LA feed covers the Pacific and Mountain time Zones Ai was on last light from 8-10PM Eastern If it was shown to the whole country at the same time it would have been seen from 5-7 pm Pacific That of course is impractical for many reasons. How did the info get out ? You're using it kid
