Paris goes public with 2024 Olympic bid while Rome takes a hit
Pris and Rome -- the cities considered Los Angeles' toughest competitors for the2024 Summer Olympics -- have made headlines for very different reasons.
The Paris campaign launched a wide-scale effort Tuesday to get French citizens more involved in the bid at open meetings or on the Internet.
Paris 2024 will post feedback and hold votes on specific proposals. In September, the top 100 ideas put forward will be analyzed and considered for inclusion in the bid.
Calling it "the biggest public engagement in Olympic bid history," Co-Chairman Tony Estanguet said his committee is seeking "a real dialog with the French public, taking into account views from all aspects of society."
