The private committee bidding to bring the 2024 Summer Olympics to Los Angeles will continue its social media campaign on Friday with an online Q&A featuring Chairman Casey Wasserman and


former Olympic swimmer Janet Evans. The public can watch the live stream and submit questions beginning at 9 a.m. at Facebook.com/LA2024. NEWSLETTER: GET ESSENTIAL CALIFORNIA HEADLINES


DELIVERED DAILY >> The social media gathering follows on the heels of LA 2024’s use of geofilters on Snapchat. Wasserman has spearheaded the bid for more than a year and Evans is


serving as vice chair. LA 2024 is trying to position its city as the younger, hipper option to rivals in Paris, Rome and Budapest, Hungary. The bidding process will continue through the


summer of 2017, when the International Olympic Committee is scheduled to select a host. FOLLOW DAVID WHARTON ON TWITTER: @LATIMESWHARTON ALSO OLYMPIC LEADERS CREATE SPECIAL TEAM FOR REFUGEE
