#34: Journalists Against Lance Armstrong

The journalists who relentlessly pursued the truth about Lance Armstrong’s alleged doping in the early 2000s faced a Herculean challenge. At that time, Armstrong was not just a cycling icon; he was a symbol of hope and resilience, having triumphed over cancer to claim seven consecutive Tour de France titles.

They delved into rumors and whispers, chasing down leads and evidence that pointed to a systematic doping operation within Armstrong’s team. Despite being dismissed as conspiracy theorists and facing intimidation, these journalists persisted. Their dogged determination eventually unraveled the web of deceit, culminating in Armstrong’s stunning confession in 2013.
