SOCHI, Russia, Feb. 18 (UPI) -- Accusations from fans on social media and the Canadian press say that Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir were "robbed" of the gold medal in ice dancing.
The accusations started as soon as the scores flashed on the screen in the Iceberg Skating Palace. Twitter filled up with tweets saying the two were "robbed" and criticizing the judging. Canadian writer Rosie Dimanno suggested that the competition was fixed for a Davis and White win. Her reasoning was that the Games sought to give the gold to Russia for pair skating and gold to the U.S. for ice dancing.
