If Lance Armstrong went to jail and Livestrong went away, that would be a huge setback in our war against cancer, right? Not exactly, because the �famous nonprofit donates almost �nothing to scientific research. BILL GIFFORD looks at where the money goes and finds a mix of fine ideas, millions of dollars aimed at �awareness,� and a few very blurry lines....

Sorry, it's too long for cut-n-paste.

News to me.

Armstrong must have banged this guys girlfriend. I read the 12 pages and there is no "there" there. The main sticking point of the article is that his foundation actually provides service and support to people who are actually fighting the disease, to enhance quality of life and ways to financially survive the struggle, as opposed to actually funding cancer research.

I today's so-called journalists devoted half the time and word count to the corruption to 50 prominent politicians it might be noteworthy.
