That's a fairly balanced view.
The one thing that raises my hackles is the repeat of Armstrong's claim that he's the most tested athlete in the world. The US Anti-Doping Agency publishes a list each year of athletes and how many tests they were subject to. Armstrong is in the midfield, he's not even close to being the most tested athlete in the US, never mind the world. It's lazy journalism to take Armstrong's claim at face value and repeat it, especially when it's something you can check yourself in 15 mins.
