Wow. I've just heard about the ice dancing "controversy".

It seems NBC refused to air the free dance routine from the Israeli pair. Why? Because it's a brother/sister pair (not out of the ordinary, there were 3 others in competition), dancing suggestively (normal, if creepy, for ice dancing), to the theme of Schindler's List (hmmmmm).

The've since posted the full video routine on their site here, so we can all judge for ourselves whether it crosses the incestuous-trivialization-of-the-Holocaust line or not.

On a side note, having gone back to take another look at Lysacek's routine last week, it's kinda nice to watch figure skating on the website without the commentary.
