OlyBLOG contains hundreds of articles (scroll down) published between 2004 and 2010 regarding the Olympics in Vancouver.

The 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics was the first time in history that social media was used to disseminate local independent information about the Games globally. It had a considerable impact on how the IOC promotes the Olympics today. OlyBLOG.com played a substantial role in identifying how MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA influences and covertly manipulates the Olympic conversation.

US President Donald Trump makes it sound like he is the first to "out" FAKE NEWS, but a claim like that ironically, would be fake news. Yes, Trump has turned up the heat on reporters and news companies, but as usual his motivations lean heavily to self-interest. We'll take it though.

Fake news promoters, often in partnership with large corporations, are a challenge that has plagued democracy for much too long. Websites like this and now many others for well over a decade have been heavily invested in a conversation about the covert bias of news media.

FAKE NEWS provides a considerable bases for the IOC and its corporate partners as can be seen in the archival articles about news media below.

Regarding this year's Olympics in Japan, and how Covid-19 is impacting this summer's event, the IOC once again are being criticized for putting corporations before athletes.

Olympic athletes have expressed that they cannot train properly and maintain any sort of Covid-19 isolation to protect their health. Over 800 died in Italy yesterday.

So far to date, the IOC is strongly insisting the Olympics will happen this summer. Athletes are pushing back through social media to protect not only their health, but the reputation of the games.
