又是奥运惹的祸
May 27th, 2008最近NBA又遭到了CCTV、BTV等广大中国电视台的抵制。终于找到了原因:
So Newble crafted an open letter to the Chinese government asking how it could stage an Olympics when it “remains complicit in the terrible suffering and destruction in Sudan.” And he gathered his Cavaliers teammates and told them that China was buying oil from and selling arms to the government in Sudan, which was maiming and torturing countless innocent people.
这场风波中,被推在风口浪尖上的是Lebron James:一边是球鞋的最大消费群,一边是前队友喋喋不休的催促表态。AOL的一则报道,说”Lebron Jame is finally willing to talk about the situation. Even if he’s not really saying anything.” 下边评论很好玩,一哥们说“等着看这个高中生怎么谈论政治吧”。
另外一个处于两难境地的是Kobe Bryant, 在中国同样拥有巨大量的拥趸,巨大量的球鞋销量。只是一些游戏,何必上纲上线?
