Last week, the board of the LA28 Olympics organizing committee voted Wednesday to keep Wasserman as chairman of the committee, saying in part that their outside counsel, “found Mr. Wasserman’s relationship with Epstein and Maxwell did not go beyond what has already been publicly documented.”
On Thursday, Wasserman hosted a reception at NBA All-Star Weekend. Page Six reports NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, Comcast CEO Brian Roberts, and ESPN Chairman James Pitaro were among those in attendance.
Los Angeles Times reports that the board of directors for LA 28 saw the emails as “dated and less serious,” based on interviews with several insiders. In his memo to agency employees, Wasserman said in part, “Other than my children and my fiancée, there are two things that matter most to me in this world: this company that I founded 24 years ago, and the dream I’ve pursued for more than a decade of bringing the Olympic Games back to the city I love.”
