“If the fix is not in against Canadians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir in Sochi, then I’m the Princess of Wales.”
Moments after the United States won its first Olympic gold medal in ice dancing, The Toronto Star, Canada's largest newspaper, blasted the victory with a furious story accusing the judges of fixing the scores against the Canadian team.

SOCHI, RUSSIA—The villainy of ice dancing knows no bounds.
Strip away the sequins, wipe off the pancake makeup, delete the frozen-in-place smiles, and what's left is a tawdry whore of a sport where the judges are the johns.
If the fix is not in against Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, then I'm the Princess of Wales.
They are the defending Olympic champions but for the past two seasons it has become transparently clear that a repeat gold was not in the scheme of things. And scheming is the correct term for what transpired in the short program competition here Sunday night.
DiManno openly implies that the only reason why defending champions Virtue and Moir didn't win gold again in Sochi was due to a secret agreement between the Russians and the Americans, which was reported in the French media last week.

The IOC refused to investigate the allegations of fixed judging in the ice dancing event, dismissing the accusations as gossip in a press conference last Sunday. "I have seen absolutely no evidence apart from the claim, so we would treat that as a bit of gossip, frankly, which is groundless," said communications director Mark Adams.
