Not only will Velonews not cover what other online major sports agencies are covering, they do so unethically. Yep. They take advertising money from Armstrong's groups (Livestrong, Radio Shack, etc), and have blatantly done so all year while keeping the negative AP articles off their magazine. I have a friend who works in their print dept that tells me stuff about them all the time.

It's evident that Velonews won't cover the latest news on the federal investigation while the Associate Press, ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Fox Sport, CBS Sports, NBS Sports, other cycling news agencies, such CyclingNews.com, even freaking Bicycling.com cover this. Oh no. Serious. Do a search on Velonews. During the previous couple months, the most newsworthy story they covered about Lance Armstrong was a speech he did at some high school. People know that the editors have decided that they will not cover any federal investigation into American doping, unless it is a rebuttal statement. And you know who is doing the rebuttals. That is right. Armstrong and his lawyers. Thus, even if you get any news, it's all one-sided. No journalistic integrity. Go over to Cyclingnews. They don't pull rank crap like that.
Greg LeMond.......you're still here?
