For example:

* More NBC coverage was given to a former minor U.S.Olympian who had his passport revoked by China when he stated his goal of using the occasion of the Games as a
global podium for protesting Sudan human right violations in Darfur.


* A recently nationalized black African will be he standard bearer for the U.S. team at the Games opening ceremonies.
