Let's see if I have this right:
Uncle Jimbo files an FEC complaint. NYTimes admitted the special rate and claims it was a mistake. Then MoveOn cut an additional check--essentially admitting responsibility--that can only be in response to liability over a violation.
UJ, I think it's about time for a full-on Snoopy Dance.
NYT admits fellow traveler rate
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In the Public Editor column of today's New York Times, the Times' vice president admits that, without the knowledge or consent of MoveOn.org Political Action, the Times "made a mistake" in charging MoveOn its standby rate of $65,000 for the adverti...

Hey, thanks, that's a nice overview of the evidence. And I think your scenario makes pretty good sense, which no hand-held full-auto 3-round burst to the forehead does (whether at ten yards or a hundred). And given that there are multiple other impacts in the same general area, the idea that three happen to be in close proximity is less than incredible.
Radio & Tillman update
I added this to my previous post about Kev's theory on how Pat Tillman could have been shot. I spent most of the afternoon reading several hundred pages of testimony about Tillman's death and I will first apologize to O'Neal for the post because the fact that it is possible that he could have d...
Maybe I'm missing something in this incident, but when I heard of it initially, I assumed the close grouping was the result of three aimed rounds. (Which, at a range of less than 100yds, wouldn't be particularly remarkable.) It seems most folks here are assuming the rounds came in one burst, with the target standing or in motion. If so, I'd have to agree the results are anomalous.
Seems to me Occam's razor argues for a stationary target, and multiple shots (or bursts). Is there any evidence to suggest that's not the case?
