Christine Brennan has decades of experience covering skating and interacting directly with the athletes and officials involved. Phil Hersh has even more experience. They're honest in their criticisms and some people might not like that, and it's obvious others just dislike that they don't treat skaters with kid gloves - they treat figure skating like any other sport, where criticism and sometimes harshness is FINE.
As to everyone complaining about Christine's North American bias - first off, let's remember she's writing for a US audience during the Olympics. Second, yeah, I'm soooooo sure that all of the Russian journalists who cover skating are totallllllly unbiased and that they're so kind to US and Canadian skaters.
