Abstract

Discusses the potential role of investigative interviewing in the detection of doping violations. Highlights problems with the harm minimisation solution to doping control.

[Extract] The late 2012 revelation that Lance Armstrong was doping (USADA, 2012) caught many in the media and sporting worlds by surprise. However, like many other supposed exposes, the revelations were simply confirming ongoing suspicions. Walsh (2012) for instance, provides a telling historical review of drug use in professional cycling, while Macur (2014) reveals the plethora of drug-use practices used by the US Postal team for so long. The Armstrong affair is especially important, though, since several important themes emerge from an analysis of the media coverage given to the release of the USADA report.
