Joannie who?

Journal de Montréal Feb. 24, 2010

I'm sure Joannie Rochette and her family would love to save the newspapers that carried the story of her courageous and impressive bronze medal in figure skating.

Fortunately the Journal de Montréal learned to spell her name properly today. They screwed it up on Wednesday's front page after her short program.

Congratulations, Joannie

Personal best Vancouver 2010
Short program 70.00 (Nov. 2009) 71.36
Free skate 124.15 (Feb. 2010) 131.28
Total score 191.29 (March 2009) 202.64
Olympic rank 5 (2006) 3

I'll leave the eloquent writing to the dozens of newspaper writers and columnists here and abroad working on stories.

As far as I'm concerned, the numbers speak for themselves.
