It's not uncommon to refer to ice dancing and figure skating as separate events under the umbrella of skating. When you read the ISU communications they often refer to figure skating and ice dancing in the titles.

Absolutely, and it's not that surprising, it's not even the same blades.
In France, they used to have two different Nationals (one for Figure Skating, and the other one for Ice Dancing).

@Seerek, we should just keep using this thread for outrageous Olympics-related factual errors and/or typos :

Good grief, what a boo boo. I don't understand why "journalists just don't come here at FSU to check their facts. Fans here are passionate, knowledgeable and notice every mistake and typo imaginable when concerning skating.

I think they are making a big mistake predicting Chen to win and Fernandez not to medal. I dont believe either of those things will happen.

I think they are wrong in believing Duhamel & Radford will medal in the individual event too. Tarasova & Morozov are far more likely to take the bronze.

I dont think Virtue & Moir will win over Papadakis & Cizeron but that one could go either way. The Shibutanis probably will not win the bronze either, it will go to either Hubbell & Donohue or Weaver & Poje I believe.

Pretty sure that SI picked Elvis Stojko to win and B&K to medal more than once.
