My husband and I subscribe to the West Central Tribune and the Minneapolis Star Tribune. I want to thank you for the Feb. 24 headline in the West Central Tribune concerning Sasha Cohen receiving a medal in the Olympics -- "Cohen brings home a silver in figure skating." Your headline was positive and put the correct perspective on Sasha's winning the silver medal. By the Star Tribune saying her "dreams of gold dashed," it made it sound like she didn't accomplish anything because she took the silver medal.
She should be given accolades for participating and winning the silver medal. I appreciate your positive headline, which gives due to an Olympic athlete for her accomplishment. Not very many of us could skate like she did.
