had Ashley not spoken up about Coughlin, the vast majority, people would still hold the statement that his agent had to give about Bridget and her story.
The infamous Tara Modlin, former agent to Johnny Weir, but also Gracie. Her comments about Namiotkas story

As much as she'd like to think otherwise, Modlin is hardly known outside the skating world (except when the IRS went after her questionable accounting practices for the 9/11 fundraising shows). I don't think her words carry much weight within skating either.
Ashley did absolutely the right thing in speaking up after Bridget spoke up, but the sad reality is that the media and the skating establishment basically ignored Bridget's allegations until Ashley described what happened to her too.
