Wang Junxia admits to doping. Who is next?

This article refers to a letter from 1995.
Wang has not admitted doping, OP is making stuff up.
The letter was written in 1995 but not published till now. This is being reported by the Chinese State media. Here's link two:
The article indicates the IAAF (for whatever they are currently worth) are looking into the authenticity of the letter.
I would think that a world record holder admitting to doping is at least as news worthy as all the alleged doping allegations that have found their way on to this board over the years.
The probe aims to verify the letter and, if proven to be from the runners, has consequences for their titles, medals and reputation.
So in other words, there is a letter that is 20 years old but we don't even know who wrote it.
Lol. Move on. Nothing to see here.

LOL ... until she comes out and states she wrote the letter I will stick with the IAAF's position: they don't believe the letter is real, but are looking for confirmation.
Yep, makes perfect sense for the Chinese media(still controlled by the government) to out one of their Olympic heroes as a doper for no reason.
Probably to cover up a destroyed short track I'm sure...
Yup, makes sense for someone to use today's tech to create a fake letter and dated, gasp, 1995.
The IAAF is looking for confirmation the letter is real. The letter appears to be fake-- the photoshopper needs more lessons. At least the IAAF is checking and tossing the letter out without review.
