olympians can't blog home?

Interesting piece of news from Wired. It seems that olympians can't write to a blog, or send pics of their adventures home because of the lucrative deals that were made. The only pics that can go out are ones taken by third party photogs. WTF?! They can't write on their own blogs or anything!

Seriously, this is a new low. Talk about censorship!

"Hey mom, I'd love to send you a pic of me but I can't afford to pay this photographer his fee so you'll have to wait to see it never!"

Thanks IOC!
