Two U.S. senators have called on NBC Universal to “put human rights over profits” by not broadcasting the 2022 Olympic Games to be held in communist China, citing the regime’s “abysmal record on human rights.”
“Communist China is one of the great human rights abusers in the world, and it presents a threat to the safety and security of every athlete and tourist who will travel to Beijing,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) wrote in a letter (pdf) on Dec. 19.
