Anyone else feeling like there’s a conflict of interest by how it’s the job of the news businesses to report things about the Olympics while also being the ones who supply money to the olympics, like theya rent going to want to report bad stuff about it because then it says they are supporting that stuff.

    The IOC actually doesn’t even allow most media corporations to broadcast footage (think clips of events) from the Olympics. That’s why you usually only see images or interview clips.
