They clearly taped this 30-minute feature before the Trials but then aired it anyway. The article DOES NOT MENTION she was 4th at the Trials.
The article claims she's going to Paris as an alternate. Is that even true? Does the Olympics/USATF send the alternate to the Olympics? I would think not as the alternates would either a) be in a pissed off mood and bring everyone else's mood down or b) be drinking and partying so much that the Village would be too wild.
