LA Times: Asada, Nagasu, and Zhang are "Ones to Watch"

The Los Angeles Times ran a short preview of the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver. They name World Champion Mao Asada and U.S. National Champion Mirai Nagaus as ones to watch, along with Caroline Zhang. Was it a mistake to leave out Junior World Champion Rachael Flatt? Or was she just left out of the article because she is not from Southern California like Zhang, Nagasu, and the primary LA Times readership are? We may never know the answers to all of these pressing questions.
