As an aside, also an interesting case of how social media is trumping traditional media.
Gracie Gold was on the Today show this morning, and AFAIK, no one on GS has mentioned her appearance. Jason is the "it" Team USA skater of the moment -- and perhaps straight thru the Olympics ... and then ???
(BTW, I mentioned in another thread that Jason also had been a trending Twitter topic on Sunday b/c of his FS. Very cool. )
Indeed!
Also, I just got an email notice from Mashable that they predict that its post on Jason is going to go viral. So far there has been 9,800 shares of the post so far, far outranking most of the stories on the website.
Never in my wildest dreams would I expect this to happen. As a fan, I am absolutely thrilled that he is getting so much attention and praise.
