November segments include:
· SWISS SPORTS: REAL SPORTS examines why nearly all of the world's sports federations, including the IOC and FIFA, have chosen to make Switzerland their home - and looks into allegations that the Swiss government's hands-off approach has allowed for rampant misuse of funds, corruption and bribery scandals. Correspondent David Scott reports. Producer: Josh Fine.
· MIKAELA SHIFFRIN: She is widely considered to be the best female skier on the planet and was the heavy favorite to win multiple medals at last year's Beijing Olympics. But when the unthinkable happened, and Shiffrin failed to finish three of her races, millions of viewers around the world were left stunned. In her first in-depth interview since Beijing, Shiffrin sits down with Real Sports correspondent Jon Frankel as she prepares for the upcoming ski season in the mountains of Chile, and opens up about the challenges she faced and the criticism she's received since the Games. Producer: Chapman Downes.
· QATAR (Update): As the World Cup gets ready to kick off this month in Qatar, REAL SPORTS revisits its report on how some of the wealthiest men on earth imported hundreds of thousands of the world's poorest, then put them to work in conditions that have been compared to modern-day slavery. Finally, after years of charges of exploitation and untold deaths, the Qatari government promised reforms. But those reforms, critics say, were too little and too late. Correspondent David Scott reports. Producers: Josh Fine, Stephen Lorenzo.
The executive producer of REAL SPORTS WITH BRYANT GUMBEL is Joe Perskie.
