Local skier denied podium

The Spokesman-Review

Bode Miller on the front page (Feb. 22)? What about Will Brandenburg?

I am sure the people from Bode Miller’s hometown of Franconia, N.H., would love to see Miller on the front page, or in the sports page, but what about coverage of our local Olympic athletes?

Having a small picture of Will on page A8 really doesn’t do him justice. We missed an opportunity to showcase a local boy who is an up-and-coming ski star. Or at least give some well-deserved recognition. You guys dropped the ball on this one.
