His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

You know, our primary task is prevention. So a lot of trainings, a lot of education. We recently hired a second \u003ca href=\"https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/tix_dis.html\">Title IX\u003c/a> officer, and her primary responsibility is training within the athletic department.

And there were only two year-round families that lived in the valley itself,” said \u003ca href=\"http://www.tahoefacts.com/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">David Antonucci\u003c/a>, an avid cross-country skier, long-time Tahoe resident and author of the book “\u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002Y5VTCC/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Snowball’s Chance: The Story of the 1960 Olympic Winter Games\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tahoe Olympic story began in the waning days of 1954.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Alex Cushing, who is a co-founder of what was then known as the Squaw Valley ski area, was reading the paper,” said Antonucci. “And he saw that the city of Reno was submitting a bid to host the 1960 Winter Olympics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was all it took to give Cushing the improbable idea of pitching his own little ski resort as a contender for the privilege of hosting the 1960 Olympics, said Antonucci.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He thought, ‘Heck, Squaw Valley is a better mountain. I’ve got better conditions here. I wonder if I could submit a bid and just get some publicity for it?'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cushing was a Harvard-educated lawyer with many rich and powerful friends. He hurriedly put together a proposal, got financial backing from the California state Legislature, and traveled to New York to pitch the U.S. Olympic Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And much to the surprise of everybody, the U.S. Olympic Committee decided to nominate Squaw Valley to host the 1960 Winter Olympics,” Antonucci said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11904462\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 755px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11904462\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/02/RS53560_Opening-2-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"755\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/02/RS53560_Opening-2-qut.jpg 755w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/02/RS53560_Opening-2-qut-160x163.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view of the opening ceremonies at the 1960 Olympics. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Bill Briner)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But Cushing still had to go to Paris and convince the International Olympic Committee (IOC) that Tahoe should host the Games. Even though by this point he had the support of both the state of California and the U.S. federal government, his chances of winning looked pretty slim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s being told, ‘Forget it. You’ve got no chance. You’re just wasting your time,'” said Antonucci. “People in the Olympic orbit said, ‘Innsbruck, Austria, has it tied up.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Cushing and his team didn’t give up. They started working their contacts around the globe. The lobbying effort included the then-unorthodox step of printing their proposal in Spanish — not just the official Olympic languages of English and French. [emailsignup newslettername=\"baycurious\" align=\"right\"]“He actually traveled or had representatives travel to South America to visit with IOC representatives that normally wouldn’t be interested in the Winter Olympics to get their support and make sure they would be in attendance and could vote,” Antonucci said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it worked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After two nail-biting rounds of voting, California prevailed, beating Innsbruck by just a couple of votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The world was shocked,” said Antonucci, adding that another year would pass before the IOC definitively green-lit Cushing’s winning bid, asking him to raise several million dollars in funding first.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Disappearing history\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you visit \u003ca href=\"https://www.palisadestahoe.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Palisades Tahoe\u003c/a>, the massive white mountains set against the limitless blue sky are just as awe-striking today as they likely were back in 1960. Antonucci points out where some of the Olympic races took place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we look up this canyon here, this was the men’s downhill course,” he said. “It started up on that peak, which is called Palisades.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the Olympic logo, with its five, colorful interlocking circles symbolizing global unity, is a favorite location for a photo opp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But only a smattering of the original Olympic era structures remain.
