Reference for popularity

In trying to fix one of the {{fact}} tags toward the end of the article, I went looking for something to document her popularity. Best I found so far was this from a blog on Globo's site:

:Jogos de Pequim aumentam audiência da Globo: Jade Barbosa, Daiane dos Santos e companhia renderam à Globo 20 pontos, com 49% de share. No mesmo horário, com a programação normal, a audiência fica em torno dos 14 pontos.

[http://oglobo.globo.com/cultura/kogut/Default.asp?a=12&cod_blog=13&palavra=&pagAtual=2] accessed today - but the permalink tries to make me register: [https://seguro2.oglobo.com.br/cadastro/default.asp?pagfim=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oglobo.com.br%2Fcultura%2Fkogut%2Fpost.asp%3Ft%3Djogos_de_pequim_aumentam_audiencia_da_globo%26cod_Post%3D119290%26a%3D12].

Anyway, if the network broadcasting the games in Brazil cites her first as the reason why they're doing well, that seems significant. - PhilipR (talk) 15:48, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
