(Xinhua)
Updated: 2008-08-09 01:42 The Chinese people are brimming with pride and patriotism, said Jeremy Thompson, a British Sky Broadcasting (BSB) news anchor, while reporting Friday from near Beijing's National Stadium, also known as the "Bird's Nest." His colleague Peter Sharp commented that the Beijing Games is terrific since it demonstrates China's increasingly important role on the world stage. Major newspapers in Germany also carried stories about the Beijing Olympics on Friday. The Beijing Olympics will definitely bring China and the European Union closer, Wolfgang Grupp, president of German sportswear supplier Trigerma, was cited as saying by the Suddeutsche Zeitung daily. Germany TV broadcasters ARD and ZDF plan to air 300 hours of Olympic-related TV programs, and publish game results and experts' commentaries on their websites. Also, newspapers across Romania published special Olympic-themed editions. Televiziunea Romania, the country's national TV broadcaster, said it will telecast the opening ceremony live and provide 320 hours of coverage to the Beijing Games. |
