US-born China skiier dubbed 'Beijing's daughter'; Top ski jumpers disqualified for suit violations
Five top athletes get disqualified from the Beijing Olympics ski jumping final. But the ski wear suit violations seem to be sparking more conversation than who got the gold. A Chinese speed skater trips a fellow women’s division competitor. Accusations are mounting over whether it was on purpose. But that’s not all. In the men’s category, another skater from Team China pushes his opponent, causing him to fall. Judges opted not to penalize him. A U.S.-born sports star is rising to fame on Team China–after she claimed a gold medal. Now, the Communist Party is urging her to thrive, all to support its national ‘glory.’ And a report dives into how American tech giants support Chinese military development. Top names on the list? Microsoft, GE, and Intel.
