LA, Paris in war of words
Print Edition
LOS Angeles accused rival Paris of being behind reports that the US city bought Facebook “likes” to artificially boost it’s bid to secure the 2024 Games.
French radio station RTL said on Monday that the LA 2024 bid had used fringe internet companies to buy “likes,” so it could announce that it had become the first Olympic bidder to attract more than one million Facebook fans.
“All Facebook advertising has been purchased directly through Facebook. It’s no surprise that this story originated from Paris,” LA 2024 spokesman Jeff Millman said.
The International Olympic Committee will make its pick on September 13.
