this is nothing new
the olympics are very protective of their sponsors and the amount they pay to be 'official'.
my wife works in commercial radio and there's a massive list of words and such stuff they're not to use in advert in the build up and during the summer games.
in fact, they can't use the word 'summer games'.

I like the suggestion on the letters page that they copyright the words 'fiasco', 'debacle' and 'shambles'.
