Olympics

Even the liberal Associated Press observed that NBC’s multi-billion dollar Olympics bet on pro-communist China just went up in flames. The Associated Press (AP) called the Olympics a “disaster” for NBC, especially after it secured a $7.75 billion deal for exclusive rights to cover the Games through 2032.

On Tuesday, Washington Examiner’s Social Media Reporter Heather Hamilton reported on NBC’s disastrous drop in viewership during the recently-concluded Winter Olympics: “After more than two weeks of coverage, the 2022 Winter Olympics competition in Beijing is complete, leaving behind dismal TV ratings.”

Late Tuesday night, over 70 percent of voters in dark navy blue San Francisco showed even they have a limit for woke politics as they removed three members of the city’s Board of Education as a reaction to their lengthy school closures, choosing to spend time renaming schools, and showing an aversion to the needs of the children they serve. Of course, none of this was of interest to the major…

In 1936, Adolf Hitler presided over the Summer Olympics. It was a coming-out party for the Nazis. They put their best foot forward to show their recovery after World War I. They intended to wow the crowd with Nazi grandeur. The international press and much of the world ate it up. Two years later, Germany annexed Austria. World War II began less than a year later. Now, in 2022, the…

On Saturday, National Review News Writer Caroline Downey reported on how “ESPN featured a sports pundit Friday who said it’s hypocritical for Americans to be preoccupied with China’s egregious human rights violations in the context of the Beijing Olympic Games given Republican ‘assaults on voting rights’ and racial injustices in the United States.”

What if they threw a Winter Olympics and nobody watched? That seems to be the big question facing the Chinese Communist Party and its feckless crap weasel enablers at the International Olympic Committee.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) drew outrage on Thursday after she ominously warned U.S. Olympic athletes not to dare protest China or else something could happen to their families. But on ABC’s The View on Friday, co-host Joy Behar and special co-host Star Jones defended Pelosi’s warning by suggesting she was just being “maternal” because “she cares about the kids.”

On Morning Joe, MSNBC contributor Elise Jordan says it is "shameful, shameful" of Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi telling US Olympians not to protest at the Olympics in China. Richard Haass and Al Sharpton are more tempered in their remarks, saying they "respectfully disagree" with Pelosi's position. Mika Brzezinski makes no comment other than a "wow."

Media Research Center President Brent Bozell on Wednesday wrote letters calling on NBC News and NBC Sports to unflinchingly “devote significant on-air reporting to telling the truth” about Communist China’s genocide against Uyghur Muslims, as well as the country’s “egregious response” to COVID-19 and other outrages. 

NBCUniversal is reportedly partnering with Chinese state-linked social media app TikTok for an advertising campaign designed to promote NBC’s coverage of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.

Can we ever have a gender-normal Olympiad again? Last summer in Tokyo, it was all about the transgenders. Next month in Beijing, the United States will feature its first-ever non-binary winter athlete.

Earlier this month, President Biden said that he would not be sending any diplomats to the Winter Olympics in Beijing due to the numerous and well-documented human rights violations the Chinese regime has committed. However, Biden once again showed he has no spine and has walked back his original stance on sending his diplomats to the Games.

For good reason, the 2022 Winter Olympics are being described as the “genocide games.” The Olympics in Beijing are just six weeks away, and for people with a conscience, it’s impossible to overlook the heinous human rights abuses China is trying to sweep under the rug. It’s also appalling to see huge corporations blindly sponsoring the Winter Games despite China’s despicable dictatorship.

During an appearance on Tuesday’s CNN Tonight with Chris Cuomo’s temporary replacement, Michael Smerconish, veteran Olympics broadcaster and sports commentator Bob Costas called out the International Olympic Committee for their “affinity for authoritarian nations” and their snubs against the U.S. He also surprised viewers by calling out “the likes of Colin Kaepernick and LeBron James…
