    An NPR story on the http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...ryId=100735866

    This stood out like John Waters at a Toby Keith concert-

    "Along with another team, Garmin-Chipotle, Columbia-High Road has led the way with rigorous drug testing of its athletes. Stapleton notes that up-and-coming Columbia racer Mark Cavendish was tested on average more than once a week last year. Columbia-High Road and Garmin-Chipotle also use highly respected anti-doping scientist Don Catlin to monitor their team testing.
    ...Armstrong scrapped his own highly publicized personal anti-doping program with Catlin just last week. It was too difficult to carry out, Armstrong said, and too expensive.
    "

    Huh?

    He switched from Catlin's company to the one that is already handling Astana's testing program. There were logistical issues with Catlin, or something like that.

    He started posting test results on livestrong.com the other day.

    That's really shoddy reporting on the part of NPR. If I could form a coherent letter I'd let them know.
