Should Olympic competitors be allowed to blog?
I was shocked to see that Olympic competitors may not blog or even transmit photos down their mobile phones. It appears that professional journalists have a monopoly on news.
I am not comfortable with that.
- To take part in sport you have to cede your rights to your image and your history?
- We are propping up an industry with a monopoly - subsidizing them in effect?
- This is so old fashioned?
What do you think? What has the 2012 committee assumed about the review they will get from media organizations? Was this discussed openly?
