In a two-and-a-half hour interview with
Oprah Winfrey, Lance Armstrong confessed
to taking performance-enhancing drugs
to help his cycling career. “We were
mesmerized and riveted by some of his
answers,” Winfrey told CBS This Morning.
The cyclist, who has denied doping for more
than a decade, has been stripped of all seven
of his Tour de France titles.
ROBIN ROBERTS:
‘I’M COMING HOME’
Good Morning America co-host Robin
Roberts, who took medical leave in
September after being diagnosed with
a rare blood and bone marrow disorder,
announced she plans to return to the show
soon, 138 days after her bone marrow
transplant. “I’m coming home,” she said.
“We’re talking now a matter of weeks,
not months.” ABC news president Ben
Sherwood sent a heartfelt tweet about her return: “Gratitude. Just one word that comes to
mind today when I think about the last 138 days … the next 138 … and every day.”
SHOOTING GAME RELEASED 1 MONTH
AFTER NEWTOWN MASSACRE
“NRA: Practice Range” gives NRA safety tips between rounds
and is billed as “delivering one-touch access to the NRA network
of news, laws, facts, knowledge, safety tips, educational
materials and online resources.” The release comes after the
NRA placed some of the blame for shootings, like the one in
Newtown, on violent video games. The game can be played on
the iPhone and iPad and is rated appropriate for ages 4 and up.
