    I have to disagree.








    Our reports would be better. They'd have cows, horses, wine and cheese as well as rider-muppet lookalikes.

    Not to mention Echeleon Klaxons and Duck Hazard Warnings.

    Don't make me laugh. It hurts.

    All I'm saying is that if any media outlet are hiring for a Lanterne correspondent, the job absolutely has to involve travel to France and a large wine budget, because the whole thing is sadly under-reported by the lousy, no-good, glory-hunting television companies and the wine is absolutely essential, if only to dull the pain. Bring us the real stories, you lazy, lazy buggers!

    If you need a reference I am happy to provide one. Your reports are superb, truly. :D

    If they genuinely believe Sky are cheating then they want the blacklist, as that "shows" they are digging the dirt ala Walsh and Lance.

    And it's good headline, being blacklisted, when they're after clickbait.

    Brailsford has given them the headline though. Which means he's either under pressure and is cracking, or (more likely, imho) he wants the press looking at that and not somewhere else. Don't think that means Sky are doing something wrong that they want to hide though.
    One of the golden rules of journalism: Don't become part of the story

    Apparently, Brailsford has apologised for his rant:

    I can't see any mention of it on Cycling News
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.
