Why haven't any reporters directly asked Jerry and Shalane about Shelby in light of the CAS ruling?

    They scorched-earth doping authorities during Shelby's "press conference" and were made to look like gigantic fools once the CAS ruling was released. It was clear as day the excuse THEY provided was laughably ludicrous, yet there has been no comment from them whatsoever about why went to bat so hard. Why haven't any running "reporters" asked them about this? They have a lot of explaining to do, yet they are being allowed to hide from the fact and, in Shalane's case regarding her 6 marathon tour, allowing to to be completely forgotten. Looking at you Wejo/Rojo/Gault.

    I believe Wejo, Rojo, and Gault would surely pose such questions if given the opportunity.

    You'd think that hard hitting, respected and well connected journalists like rojo and wejo would pose the tough questions.

    I’ve wondered the same. Seems to be the biggest doping story for American distance running in the last last decade and not one single media has pressed the BTC coaches or athletes on this. Not once. Furthermore, the BTC seems more than willing to have the drug cheat Houlihan remain on the team. I just don’t get it.

    The distance running world asks absolutely nothing of the Bowerman Track Club. Sketchy jumps in performance and even a dead to eights ruling against Shelby and Jerry/Shalane still have halos above their heads. They both will be out of pro coaching as soon as they find a major college coaching job.

    Well it appears some reporters are more fans than journalists. Of course the writing was on the wall since quite a while. Swoosh...

    AW with D. Brown, Salazar, Slaney etc.

    MOP with Salazar, J. Brown, Farah, Rupp etc.

    BTC with Schumacher, J. Brown, Jager, Houlihan etc.

    On the other hand, what's there to ask? They'd just repeat their comical denials, and attack AIU/WA/WADA/CAS.

    It is not only an American problem.

    What more have we heard from Aden/Sabadell? He is now coaching the silver in Tokyo! He is proudly held in bahrain.

    After many positives Kada in maroco still maintains his position.

    The group managed by Juan Pineda in Spain with so many drug difficulties still persists.

    The group managed by rosa is the same.
