The Wall Street Journal - Olympics Homemade Highlights



I've been watching the Olympics on TV from day one and it's all very enjoyable and inspiring so far. If you've been missing out, watch these three videos of the Olympics highlights from The Wall Street Journal. They're not your average Olympics highlights. This is a low budget, homemade and really funny version of the highlights. I think more news reports should be made like this.

Olympic Badminton Scandal
