Did Samsung Pull Out of the Olympics? (Fact Check)

Samsung Pull Out of the Olympics
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Recently, rumors have circulated suggesting that Samsung Electronics has ditched the $1 billion advertising partnership with the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The rumors started after an article published by Esspots (the website that published the story) stated that the controversial depiction of Leonardo Da Vinci’s The Last Supper during the Olympic opening ceremony had an impact on the company’s choice.

According to Esspots, Samsung’s withdrawal was sparked by a performance on the Debilyl Bridge that included three French drag queens and other performers, with the Eiffel Tower and Seine River in the background. But this assertion has been debunked.

With regards to Esspots’ claim, however, it is crucial to state that Samsung has not pulled out of its Olympic partnership. No press release has been issued of any sort which suggests that the company is backing out of the event in any way.

Nevertheless, a tweet from a verified Twitter account of Samsung proves that Samsung is still active in the process and participated in providing equipment to Olympic broadcasting services and the International Olympic Committee.

The tweet cheerfully promoted Samsung’s role in showcasing Olympic moments with their Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic edition, using hashtags like #Paris2024 and #OfficialPartner.

Going deeper into the facts, it is clearer that Esspots is a fake news site and part of SpaceXMania. com.

The disclaimer on Esspots’ site clearly states: “Our team of writers and editors is committed to giving you the best of fake news and ridiculousness, here with humor and satire,”

This means that the article in question was written in satire and not as a real news article.

Hence, while some unsourced and unverified information is out there, Samsung’s official position and their last statements embrace their support for the Paris 2024 Olympics.

These fake claims connect with rumors that Netflix lost 6 million subscribers after allegedly contributing $7 million to Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign, which surfaced a few weeks ago.
