	Online NewsHour: Winter Olympics Wrap Up -- February 23, 1998
		I’ll be fascinated to see what NBC does because they’ve got the next four Olympics, and how they handle not only the time problem, which they’re going to have in Sydney in two years, but also I suspect--I sort of sense that the interest in the Olympics has paled a little bit.
		And I think that there’s also a situation with the Winter Olympics that doesn’t exist in the summer, and that is you’ve got almost all white athletes being watched by almost all white people.
		There’s the Olympic hymn and the Olympic oath, and all this posturing, and yet people are pretty aware that it’s just sort of a greedy Gilbert and Sullivan opera, with Juan Antonio Samarant as absolute dictator running these games.

		The current revival of the Olympic games is due in a large measure to the efforts of Pierre, baron de Coubertin, of France.
		As a visible focus of world energies, the Olympics have been prey to many factors that thwarted their ideals of international cooperation and athletic excellence.
		The International Olympic Committee (IOC), which sets and enforces Olympic policy, has struggled with the licensing and commercialization of the games, the need to schedule events to accommodate American television networks (whose broadcasting fees help underwrite the games), and the monitoring of entrants who seek illegal competitive advantages, often through the use of performance-enhancing drugs.
