SALON Daily Clicks: Media Circus Dennis the Menace meets the ice Princess What oksana baiul could learn from As for baiul, well, it may be that the 19year-old skater is a little bit http://archive.salon.com/media/media970121.html
Extractions: Who's bad? Dennis the Menace meets the Ice Princess: What Oksana Baiul could learn from Dennis Rodman, and vice versa. By David Futrelle Dennis Rodman may I'm not going to recount the whole sordid story of Rodman's Kick, the details of which have by now been driven into the skulls of every living American over the age of three. But the media reaction is telling. Though Rodman is now enduring the ritual abuse of sports commentators and fans (he'd "have to move up several notches to qualify as a fool," NBC's Bob Costas complained), very few believe this suspension will mean the end of Rodman's career. He's reportedly paid off the photographer, and even the NBA fine and the loss of a million dollars in revenue will barely put a dent in his pocketbook. You see, the 19-year-old "ice princess" is apparently out of control. The evidence? She owns a Mercedes. She's living alone, in a half-million dollar house. She's been seen in the company of professional football players. And last year, she announced to the world that "I am not any more little girl," appearing in the pages of Esquire in hot pants and not much else. Clearly, as Julia Prodis of the Associated Press has pointed out, little Oksana has been "drifting from the structured, disciplined life of skating, the six-hour practices and endless repetition." This "fairy-tale princess," as Hersh describes her, has become "more concerned about being some sort of sex goddess than a skating star." I can't help but think that neither Rodman nor Baiul will benefit much from the public reactions to their various crimes. Rodman's penalty is far too light; Baiul's too harsh. In basketball, and in most other male-dominated sports, a DWI arrest is about as noteworthy as an endorsement deal. The sport tolerates, even rewards, a certain degree of casual thuggery and personal excess: Rodman's $9 million salary reflects his peculiar brand of showmanship as much as it does his rebounding ability.

Extractions: DATELINE NEW YORK: The story of Oksana Baiul by Helen Smindak Ukraine's champion figure skater Oksana Baiul, whom we have been admiring and cheering for years as the epitome of triumph over adversity and, in a sense, a symbol of independent Ukraine, recently asserted she was Russian. The Olympic gold medal winner, who represented Ukraine at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, made this startling declaration in two public appearances, first on NBC-TV's Oprah Winfrey show on February 6, then at the B. Dalton bookstore on Fifth Avenue, where she made a personal appearance on February 13 to sign copies of her newly published autobiography "Oksana: My Own Story." In her first public appearance since her drunk-driving accident in January (an incident that received almost as much media publicity as the Nancy Kerrigan-Tonya Harding scandal), Ms. Baiul told Ms. Winfrey that she had "four or five Long Island Iced Teas" but was not drunk when she went off the road in her Mercedes-Benz. Shrugging her shoulders, she said "I'm a Russian," apparently alluding to the commonly held belief that Russians can down large quantities of alcohol without adverse effects. (A Long Island Iced Tea is a concoction of vodka, gin and rum.)
