Original Note:
The $2bn loss was not for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, but for Rio de Janeiro in 2016. There are no revenue loss reports for Paris 2024. Instead, an 82% jump in viewership, compared to the Tokyo Games (2020), and an estimated $8.2bn cost to host. https://gfmag.com/economics-policy-regulation/2024-paris-games-olympics-finances-part-1/ https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/13/media/paris-olympics-ratings-nbc-peacock-viewership-streaming/index.html https://www.morningstar.com/news/marketwatch/20240812653/the-paris-olympics-cost-an-estimated-82-billion-to-host-heres-how-that-compares-with-other-recent-olympics
