"I love this because of the decision to invest the resources to send a reporter/columnist to Milan to give the people in her area (Milwaukee) the institutional perspective that is a difference-maker on content. I was fortunate to cover the Olympics with an armada of staffers including the greatest sports photographers in the world. I didn't have to worry about this. So my free advice: If all else fails take a photo of the Jumbotron with JS in gold position if he wins. Readers love imagery of showing someone in first place in any chart form. Why It's history. When you are just a local reporter"
