Fox News Special:"Truth About Steroids" - Elite Members Interviewed - watch the clip!

I want to know who else they talked to from elite and if those interviews are included in the special. Who did they talk to George?

Rick Collins and I both spoke with them. And I know member AlanChiras did too. No one agreed to go on camera. I really hope that the kid they found for the show did not come from Elite.

We also know they used Elite for extensive research and frequented the Boards.

The main problem I have with what Fox has done is that it will likely have the exact opposite of the intended effect. Steroids don't lead to suicide and anyone with half a brain knows this. There are MANY good reasons why teens should NOT take steroids. But if the media lies to them and uses scare tactics, IMHO it will only have the opposite effect because they lose all credibility.

And the fact the Bush Sr. criminalized steroids means that adults who make a personal decision to use steroids for cosmetic purposes cannot work with a doctor as they could if they were pursuing liposuction, botox, or other esthetic procedures -- all of which have inherent risks.

nothing good will come from this, just another overeaction to a problem that really doesn't exist.

What else do you expect from FOX?!! Fox is the kind of station that puts out "Who wants to marry a millionaire" and bullshit like that!

He must have thought that the 22 guage pin with a few CC's of test was all he had to lift for a phenomenal physique. Steroids are magic you just grow without any effort.....that fat ass spent more time in the cookie jar than doing any type of physical activity. He deserves to have bitch tits for being stupid!

The world is full of idiots who will ruin everything for the rest of us. In this case, however, what's the worst that can happen? AAS are already illegal. The worst thing that can happen is that they will change _your_ mind.

I hope the same George. Elite does not need to be dragged through the mud on national television and have even more negative lies spread about the AAS. Scare tactics do not work with kids i.e. "the war on drugs" it isn't really working is it? More teenagers are using drugs, having sex, etc. than ever before. My fear is that the added unwanted publicity will further limit access to avenues of good information like elite fitness. Kids will start coming here trying to score gear and then regulations will start to take place. We as members need to be responsible with our posts and do our best to teach kids about the risks of doing AAS at young ages and also do our best to inform adults about how proper responsible use of these chemicals can increase the quality of life. I think we already do a fair job of this here on elite with the exception of a few.

Oh yeah and just a few words for Fox. You all are a buch of scum liars.

See I agree with everyone on here that says this kid is a retard and just abused steroids thinking he was going to be superman but...(not to defend fox in any way) look at how many kids out there are probably the same as this fat ass who are going to abuse AAS just to look for an easy way out...I went to high school with many kids who did the same thing and became fat pieces of shit. So maybe fox is just trying to scare these idiots who dont really take the time to research AAS before they do it so we will have less FAT FUCKS like this kid.

the worst that will happen is they will put more effort into busting up ug labs, more effort into coming on websites like this and attempting to buy gear, more effort into getting harsher penalties for aas possesion and distribution= nothing good coming from more attention.

yeah. i agree that's bad. but the UG labs will always find a way. where there is a demand, there will always be a supplier. it just pushes the technology forward. what's worse than that is if they succeed in convincing everyone that AAS are as bad as they say.
