Actually they were televised in a limited way. http://www.tvhistory.tv/1936 German Olympics TV Program.htm
I think it was in Carl Sagan's novel "Contact" in which the aliens realize we're in trouble because they pick up on the TV images of Hitler broadcast into space? Remembering that novel made me think there might possibly be some truth to the thought that TV was used for that event. A little Google search revealed a few confirming sources.
