Now this is how you handle one of those "Sochi problems."
The catch-all term has been used this week primarily to reference the dilapidated, unfinished hotel accommodations journalists found upon arriving in the Winter Olympics' host city this week, becoming the games' dominant story of the past few days. The problems had been mostly experienced by reporters, however, with no athlete-accommodation horror stories making ripples.
