China Media Group (CMG) on Sunday launched its sports news program, "Morning Sports," in east China's Shanghai Municipality for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games that will begin on July 26 in Paris, France.

Shen Haixiong, president of CMG, and Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), attended the launching ceremony of the program at which CMG's Paris 2024 logo was released and its broadcast team was recognized.

As one of the world's biggest comprehensive international media groups, CMG will do its best in playing its role as the main broadcasting body as well as the all-media rights-holding broadcaster of the 2024 Olympic Games, Shen said in his speech at the ceremony. CMG's production trucks left Beijing on Saturday for Ningbo, east China's Zhejiang Province, where they will depart for Paris. They are expected to arrive in the French capital in late July.
