Why would she say something and then take it back? Sounds like lying to me.

But remember, we don't actually have anything said BY her directly to the press. All we have is the APs translation of what her federation's president says she told him she said and felt during the the judging and the post judging meeting they had (which is standard, though this one was longer than usual). See how very indirect it is. Just whacky.
