VIDEO: CENSORED! FOR RIO!

As Drudge reported this morning, this news report was only aired once. Why? Because it was unflattering to the president's home town of Chicago. What does it say about the state of things when the battle for the Olympics comes down to Chicago or Rio and Chicagoans want them to take place in Rio? That'd almost be like Bears fans rooting for the Packers at Soldier Field.

So what's the deal? This morning, Drudge reported:
A local TV station that reported on Chicagoans NOT wanting the Olympics has been told NOT to run the report again, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT!

The Chicago Olympic Committee told FOX Chicago that its broadcast "would harm Chicago's chances" to be awarded the games.

The station's news director ordered staff to hold fire after the report aired once last Thursday morning, claims a source.

Chicago, Madrid, Tokyo and Rio are mounting strong bids for the honor to host in 2016.
The International Olympic Committee makes its decision on Friday. President Obama will lead the in-person push.
So who on earth would tell the local television station, WFLD not to air this report? Well, MICHELLE MALKIN provides some interesting context:
The president himself will now join cronies Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama to personally lobby in Copenhagen for Chicago’s bid.

On Tuesday, there will be a No Chicago Games protest reflecting the 84 percent opposition to the Olympics boondoggle.

Will they be accused of being an “angry mob,” too?
Hmmmmm.. So why would the citizens of Chicago be against the Olympics in their city while Barack and Michelle seem to be all for it? Is this a matter of 'follow the money'?
