Veteran at Chicago Tribune comes out for Kerry

I have no idea what this guy has been waiting for, but the article, addressing the "boat beaching" incident, is here.

Favorite line:

There's at least one mistake in that citation. It incorrectly identifies the river where the main action occurred, a reminder that such documents were often done in haste and sometimes authored for their signers by staffers. It's a cautionary note for those trying to piece it all together. There's no final authority on something that happened so long agoâ€”not the documents and not even the strained recollections of those of us who were there.

I suppose it would be bad form to point out that Rood wasn't actually on Kerry's boat at the time... ;)
