Question What bugs me about racing on TV, tires

I love the coverage, the different camera angles etc. but I really feel that the coverage is missing the boat when it comes to tires. The big deal for this weekends F1 race was the tire wear on the soft compound and the team strategies that went along with it but I never saw 1 tire, or a comparison between new and worn out. No tire temps either. Maybe the tire companies don't want us to see their ravaged rubber. Maybe there's a rule about showing the worn out tires but I'd like to see that kinda thing, there's a tire expert at every F1 race why don't we ever hear from them.
What is the tire rule this year in F1, what are the compounds they have to use and how many sets do they get for the weekend?
