  7. Who is Jack Mortell?

    <strong>Editor&rsquo;s note</strong>: <em>In the Sunday Chicago Sports section, a story on Jack Mortell&rsquo;s involvement in Olympic speedskating said that Mortell received portions of medal bonuses from U.S. Olympians in 2002 in an arrangement approved by US Speedskating. The story also said the USOC code of ethics in place at the time barred any member of the U.S. Olympic delegation from accepting gifts of more than a nominal value. Mortell told the Tribune in an email, &ldquo;USS Coaches and Olympic Staff have had medal bonus clauses in their contracts as far back as at least 1988 that I know of.&rdquo; He said he considered the money a bonus that he earned for his contributions to the skaters&rsquo; achievements, not a gift.</em>
