On Wednesday, China announced a back flip on Internet freedoms for the foreign reporters covering the Olympic Games.
Despite the announcement two weeks ago by IOC president Jacques Rogge that there would be no internet censorship on the media, specific internet sites will remain censored for the foreign press at Olympic venues.
In bidding for the games seven years ago, Chinese officials had promised that the media would have complete freedom to report.
The Olympic Games are the games of everyone and the foreign media should have all the freedom to report the sporting event and events taking place around it.
