It is like Michael Dickinson telling us every time a horse breaks down it is because the track was Tapeta. Give me a break.
What is really annoying is the media gives these snake oil salesman repeated free media to hype what they are selling.

I hear ya but it is the way the "media" operates. We are just noticing it more because we understand the issues and can see the holes in the stories and the occasional complete untruth. I'm sure that other industries and business deal with the same crap.
I think this was a smart move by IEAH simply because it buys them some free, good press. Considering that they run in NY where Lasix is the only race day med used it sure is generous of them to give up all those other meds that they cant use anyway. Until they specifically name what drugs that they will be giving up and tsting for the whole thing is a joke yet the media will portray it as a positive and unknowing (or stupid) people will commend them and say that "you have to start somewhere" or " it is a first step" when it actually is simply lipservice.
