The Department of Justice released over 3 million files related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, while the world watched the Super Bowl and the Winter Olympics. The Super Bowl saw record-breaking advertising costs, and the Milan Winter Olympics opened with controversy, according to multiple sources. Meanwhile, in the world of sports, Lindsey Vonn's family watched anxiously as she competed in the Olympic women's downhill competition.
The DOJ's release of Epstein-related files, which included heavily redacted documents and potentially exposed victims' personal information, was described as chaotic by Vox. Officials stated that this was the full set of materials to be made public, and additional criminal charges were unlikely. The release sparked questions about accountability.
Super Bowl LX, held on the second Sunday in February, saw brands paying a record-breaking $8 million for 30 seconds of airtime, according to Time. A handful of prime spots cost up to $10 million for 30 seconds. The event, considered a "monocultural event," was a focal point for American capitalism. Advertising, as Time noted, is "the fossil record of human desire."
The Milan Winter Olympics opened with Vice President J.D. Vance being booed, as reported by Variety. The opening of the games was a significant event, drawing attention to the world of winter sports.
In the world of skiing, Lindsey Vonn's sisters, Karin and Laura Kildow, watched their sister compete in the Olympic women's downhill competition in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy. Vonn, at 41, was attempting to win an Olympic medal after knee replacement surgery and a ruptured ACL suffered just a week prior, according to Time. Karin wore a black cowboy hat and a Team USA jacket, while Laura wore a blue USA beanie.
