Olympian Hesitant To Express All Political Views

Description

Mikaela Shiffrin is one of the most prominent sports stars in the United States. But CNN reports the skier admits the "toxic" political climate makes her "scared" to air her views. Shiffrin is a two-time Olympic champion. She is well aware her growing fame means she will be questioned on a wide variety of social and political issues. Shiffrin is wary after seeing other athletes face a backlash for making a stand. ---If the whole political climate wasn't as toxic then maybe it would be more attractive.----
