    Big amoral TNCs are exactly the type of companies the utterly corrupt IOC love to be associated with as they see them as kindred spirits. Bouncing from country to country in corporate jets, managing the 'brand' Olympic, hubris and greasing politicians is all in a day's work for them. And, just like Dow, after the games the IOC don't hang around for the clean up.

    Good man. I'll amend your report card.

    But fair play to Ms. Alexander - questions regarding sponsorship aside, to resign as she did took guts.
