Sister, I have Sinned

This is a tuna fish.

     Lance Armstrong is set to go on Oprah Winfrey's show on Monday and confess, despite years of denials, that he did use performance enhancing drugs for many, many years of his career.
     A story in the Detroit Free Press headlines the event "PR, not journalism", and that's true enough, though I think audiences have become less and less concerned about what kind of show they are watching. Entertainment Tonight and Ellen are lumped together with the evening network newscasts and 60 Minutes.
     Personally, I believed Armstrong's denials, almost to the very end.
     Perhaps that's part of my insistence in the presumption of innocence for all suspects.
     Tomorrow he'll admit his lies, and probably not be asked many harsh questions.
     He'll likely have to return a lot of awards and a lot of money, but with Oprah's approval of his mea cuppa in hand, perhaps he can recover and be strong again.
