The Times bureau in Afghanistan? They won't sleep tonight. Those guys who predicted the recession? Tough luck, folks.
ESPN found the cousin.
The American press... which slept through the build-up to the Iraq war and the collapse of the economy, never sighting the iceberg until the country was underwater... stopped at nothing until it found the cousin.
I hope the name is pronounced "suck art," because that will inspire many funny jokes, furthering the overall entertainment value of the story.
The only question now is whether ESPN should write the story first... or its Pulitzer acceptance speech. If the latter, let's hope they thank their dog.
Id like to buy ESPN a congratulatory office pet.
