NBC was forced to pull this porno-type video celebrating the role of women in the London Olympics. It is definitely a trashy piece of work, just listen to the music. It's interesting that the US network took the time to produce this trash. The Olympic coverage over here has been criticized as being very USA centered. And from what we understand, the US is the only country that doesn't show the games live.
You can read some of the comments on the video here and here
The Olympics is also riddled with corruption and hypocrisy of course with MacDonald's laughingly being the "official" food and Visa paying some $100 million to sponsor them. Then the Olympic officials kick a Korean out of the games for making a political statement. The games aren't political are they?
