I don't think the media is "sweeping it under the rug" as you say. I think it's more about the fact that track and field has fallen behind even soccer on the list of sports America cares about. It has had a little bit of play, but not as much as the baseball problems.
If something comes out more then Victor Conti saying she did it, then there will probably be more media coverage.
