Too Sue To Be True

From Slate's Today's Papers, via Atrios.

"USAT mentions inside that authorities are worried that they might not have enough evidence to prove that Zacarias Moussaoui was involved in the 9/11 plot, despite the revelation in yesterday's WP that Moussaoui met with the alleged 9/11 mastermind, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed. The Post said the meeting was evidence that Moussaoui was 'linked to the plot.' But as yesterday's TP argued�and as prosecutors in USAT reiterate�that's misleading, or just wrong: Mohammed apparently didn't trust Moussaoui and kept him out of the loop. Or as USAT puts it, 'Investigators do not believe that Moussaoui had specific knowledge of the Sept. 11 plan.' The Post messed up."

Yes, Post messed up big time.

When they hired Steno Sue.
