Well, our old friend Bobby Block of the Orlando Sentinel no longer has to worry about journalistic credibility, charges of conflict of interest or any of that. Bobby now has a nice PR job with SpaceX. That's a nice reward for having done his level-best to publicize commercial space ventures while simultaneously aiding the effort to kill Ares I and Project Constellation by allowing the Orlando Sentinel to act as a propaganda tool for the Commercial Spaceflight Federation and the Direct clowns.

Bobby is a talented editor and writer. Elon Musk picked the right man to manage his PR efforts. Meanwhile, the Sentinel is still taking on water and continues to list to port.

How about this anonymous shot (http://www.startribune.com/business/33668444.html) that went on the wire? 12.7 mph! Really?

This forecast wasn't even close. Who's talking his place at the OS?

What's funny is that this anonymous shot would story would have been better with its existing hardware, than with nothing that we apparantley have now.
