"There was a time, about a year ago, when I swear that there were even references to Nick Clark the pro cyclist in articles in the New York Times, and the Arianna Huffington-owned Thrive Global. The latter was a loving profile of Clark, titled “The story of an entrepreneur, businessman, and cyclist.” Both have since been deleted."

Journalists should learn to use archive.org.

EDIT: Just finished reading. Fine piece of journalism.

Totally agree. I suppose I was one of the duped. But really I didn’t know much about pro cycling and didn’t understand what he was lying about. But when it started coming out 2 years ago, I found everything online within a few hours. Makes me wonder how this got published: https://seancycles.com/2020/07/24/aussie-nick-clark-gets-pez... Why didn’t Pez news doing any research?
