By Sam Dealey, Thomas Jefferson Street blog

No kidding, this was the lead story in this morning's Washington Post : "United States Faces a Steep Decline in Women's Figure Skating." The. Lead. Story.

In a way, I suppose it's refreshing. Amid declining circulations and ad sales, most media pooh-bahs are trying more than ever to make their newspapers and magazines relevant. Evidently, there's no such hand-wringing over at the Post.
