quote:
Musburger famously referred to Tommie Smith and John Carlos as "black-skinned storm troopers" for their protesting racial injustice in the United States by engaging in a Black Power salute on the medal stand during the 1968 Summer Olympics. Asked about his comments decades later, Musburger granted that his words, which likened Smith and Carlos to Nazis, were "a bit harsh", but he stood by the core of his criticism of the pair's action:
“ Did [Smith and Carlos' action] improve anything? . . . Smith and Carlos aside, I object to using the Olympic awards stand to make a political statement. ”
— Musburger, as quoted by The New York Times in 1999
