Fox News
Former Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner took issue with a U.S. Olympian who recently turned her back during the national anthem and encouraged other Olympians to show respect to the United States going forward.
Jenner added that Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry, who turned her back on the medal podium in protest as the National Anthem was playing, was "disrespectful." Jenner lamented that she had received "so much press." "I was the first person ever to put an American flag at the finish line," Jenner continued. "We need more of that. And I guarantee you. Ninety-eight percent, ninety-nine percent of the athletes that are going over there are patriotic. They want to do it right. They want to represent their country. Right. But unfortunately, the media focuses on the ruins of the world. And it's a shame. It's an absolute shame."More Related News
