Amber Glenn wins Olympic gold with US figure skating team as song dispute ensues

Amber Glenn won Olympic gold in the team event but now faces backlash over her political and LGBTQ+ comments, in addition to a copyright debate about her choice of music. Canadian artist Seb McKinnon objects to her use of his song "The Return" in her free skate. McKinnon claims Glenn used the song without permission. Figure skaters must obtain permission for music, but the process is complex. Copyright issues have increased since the International Skating Union allowed vocals in 2014. Glenn, an LGBTQ+ rights activist, also faces social media threats over her comments on the political climate under U.S. President Donald Trump.
