Olympic Mascots Analysis

Here's Another Olympic Sport: from the WSJ - All about China's Olympic Mascots. I finally understand why they are so strange looking, and no, they are not aliens. They are mascots designed by committee. Just as a camel is a horse designed by committee. And of course there is also, Meet the evil Olympic Mascot.

The Olympic Mascots say a lot about China
  • Mascots were designed by committee (group consensus)
  • Negative comments about them in China have been suppressed
  • 60% Chinese like them, and 40% don't.
  • One of them symbolizes the Tibetan Antelope
