Bloomberg News Coverage

 Bloomberg's Michele Steele and Julianna Goldman report on the International Olympic Committee's vote eliminating Chicago as host of the 2016 Games. 

Live Reaction As Chicago Booted

 No one expected Chicago to be eliminated in the first round of voting. If you listen to the commentary from this and other news reports that are on YouTube you can see why No Games Chicago took their work so seriously. AFTER the bid was over people discounted their work saying Chicago never really was in the hunt. (3 min, 43 sec)  Simple URL = www.tinyurl.com/Elimination-Coverage
