The link above talks about President Jacques Rogge and his attempt to ban the women's hockey from the olympics. CNN writes,"He chose the morning of the women's gold medal hockey game to threaten the sport's very Olympic existence.", which almost sounds like the news is trying to make the IOC sound bias or almost sound like the IOC is sexist. CNN also says that he taught that the North American teams were the only good teams playing, this sounds like they are saying that the IOC actually is trying not to ban the women's hockey team but ban the two North American teams (Canada, U.S.) just because they were the best. "In the first 36 years of Olympic competition, the Canadian men won every gold medal save one. But no one abolished the sport.", in this quote, CNN makes a good point that also gives more credit that CNN is trying to say that the IOC is bias or sexist. I did some research on Rogge and found this on Wikipedia; "Rogge commented on Usain Bolt's gestures of jubilation and excitement after winning the 100 meters in Beijing are "not the way we perceive being a champion," and also said "that he should show more respect for his competitors." now it sounds like Wikipedia is trying to make Rogge bias to the olympic 100m sprint, and now it also sounds like Rogge is racist, which confuses me, but I don't think that the IOC should have a president that is bias to the olympics... ======
