U.S. newspaper coverage of the Paris Olympics

    What U.S. newspapers are staffing the Paris Olympics?

    Here are three to start -- the Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

    I don't consider The Athletic a newspaper and I don't consider it The New York Times. I believe the terminology is "wholly owned subsidiary of The New York Times."

    Conversely, what U.S. newspapers that customarily staff the Summer Olympics aren't this year?

    Thought this could be another gauge of where at least some newspapers are financially.

    I know Juliet Macur is there for the Times, so it looks like they're NOT totally relying on The Athletic ...
