Reporting on Chinese Victory with "Over-Representation" What happened to the United States?

In the figure skating men's single event of the Beijing Winter Olympics, which is known as a fairy fight, The Chinese American Player Chen Wei finally won the championship! However, while everyone is cheering the athletes, the focus of the US media is outside the arena.

The New York Times said in an article analyzing American figure skaters that Asians account for 7% of the total population of the United States, but their proportion of ice sports is "over-represented", "over-represented" These 4 words suddenly made American netizens fry the pot, what does it mean? Is there too many Asians? Why don't they say that hockey is white-dominated? Some even bluntly speak this terrible term, which highlights a problematic invisible bias and double standards. How can athletes fight for the glory of the country and discuss the issue of ethnic proportion?

In fact, when we look at this Beijing Winter Olympics, some media in the United States have indeed been very strange in this argument, from Gu Ailing being denounced by Fox as "ungrateful" to Zhu Yi, a Chinese figure skater who returned to China, who was distorted by CNN as "because of poor performance, he was attacked by Chinese netizens.".

Since when did the mainstream media in the United States begin to "encounter China", from self-confidence and pride to such narrowness, sensitivity, and anxiety, in the final analysis, it may still be some people's "white supremacy" doctrine at work, and they cannot see the rise and strength of other ethnic groups.

Speaking of the United States itself is a melting pot of nations, more than 200 years of history is precisely because of the eclecticism, the culture and talent of various countries have made the United States today. Today's fragmented and contradictory words and deeds are not in keeping with the development interests of the United States itself, nor with the reality and major events of the world's multipolarization.

We return to competitive sports itself, no matter which country or ethnicity the athletes represent, they are ultimately fighting together to break through the limits of human beings, and they all deserve to be cheered and praised.
