State Department spokesman Ned Price raised the possibility that the U.S. and allies are discussing a potential boycott of the 2022 WinterOlympics in Beijing over human rights abuses

A spokesperson for NBC Sports said that they had no comment.

CEO Brian Roberts last month addressed the possibility of this year’s Summer Games, already postponed from last year because of Covid-19, being delayed again or even canceled. Hethat “in the event that it didn’t, we have insurance and contractual protections.” A boycott of the Games by the U.S. would be the first since 1980, when President Jimmy Carter kept Team USA home from the Summer Games in Moscow. NBC had the rights to the games that year, and its coverage was greatly scaled back. Four years later, the Soviet Union boycotted the Games in Los Angeles, but it didn’t stop the ABC broadcast from being a ratings bonanza.

When China hosted the Summer Games in 2008, there also were calls for a boycott due to Beijing’s inaction in ending the human rights abuses in the Darfur region of Sudan. Steven Spielberg withdrew as artistic adviser to the games.Read More About:

While im all for a full boycott... Yes it would be unfair to the athletes. But you should ALLOW the athletes the decision to participate and choose too if they really want to. Don't punish the stars for what the actions of a few do.

Move the Olympics to another country !! Please.
