TOP 10 STEROID NEWS ARTICLES OF 2004
The subject of anabolic steroids was a very popular news topic in the year 2004. This was in large part due to the BALCO drugs-in-sport scandal, leaked grand jury testimony from Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi et al, and the passage of the Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 2004. As was to be expected, the media largely condemned and demonized steroids. However, there were a few journalists who covered the issue of steroid use more objectively by offering different perspectives. So, as we close out 2004, MESO-Rx would like to highlight the top 10 news articles of the year in 2004:
1. This Is Your Nation on Steroids - Why does a performance-enhanced society scorn performance-enhanced athletes? by James Poniewozik, TIME Magazine
