FIFA seems to be getting serious about the perception that its organization is rife with corruption. Last week it suspended three of its top officials: President Sepp Blatter, Vice President Michael Platini, and Secretary General Jéôrome Valcke. All of the suspensions were for 90 days. Additionally a fourth FIFA official, Chung Mong-joon, was barred from the sport for six years over ethical violations surrounding the selection of the sites for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.
