Be a lonely place, defying conventional wisdom and the powers that be. My guest today has known that loneliness. Irish journalist david walsh was convinced that cyclings untouchable champion Lance Armstrong was a drugs cheat long before the sport revealed the scale of his deceit. Armstrong is now history of course but doping continues to devalue elite sport. Maybe its a problem that no amount of truth telling journalism can fix. David walsh, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you. I wonder if you could cast your mind back to starting as a Young Journalist in ireland, working on sports. You memorably described yourself then as a fan with a typewriter. Do you still regard yourself as a fan . In certain respects, yes, but in a general sense, no. I think a journalist has to leave that behind.

In my case, i knew from a very early stage i wanted to be a Sports Writer and its because i liked writing essays

Until september. Its really the broadest grade on how the economy is doing. If you talk to the president about this, he says its more proof of the recovery. Since it was last 1. 3 . But his challenger is also using 2 in his favor. No surprise. Mitt romney just gave an economic speech in ames, iowa at a small Construction Business that as it turns out received nearly 2 million from obamas stimulus programs. So lets go straight to gloria borgeer who i know is watching the speech. My question number one for you is this. I didnt hear a lot new in the speech. Im guessing you didnt hear much new in the speech either. So given that fact, isnt it a bit risky, though, to introduce new policy here with 10, 11 days to go . Isnt this really about getting voters excited getting out to vote . Its about getting independent voters to really take a look at you as somebody who is reasonable. As you said, this is really not about new ideas. This is about a different tone, a different kind of appeal. Talk
