Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, LA28 Chief Casey Wasserman Talk 2028 Summer Olympics Plans


L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and LA28 chief Casey Wasserman talked up the 2028 Olympics at CNBC's Game Plan event. Wasserman vowed to stay at the helm in spite of recent allegations.

Wasserman faced an uncomfortable few minutes toward the end of the session when moderator Andrew Ross Sorkin pressed him on a report in July published by the U.K. tabloid Daily Mail that accused him of being a “serial philanderer” who had numerous alleged workplace affairs. Bass noted that the last time the Olympics came to Los Angeles, in 1984, arrangements were made to lessen the amount of regular traffic on the roads. She noted that 40 years ago, then Mayor Tom Bradley arranged so that truck deliveries were made at night rather than during the day.
