You're welcome... I'm sorry that the author or editor didn't make the effort to clarify things.

I see a lot these days where the writers become so familiar with the material that I think _they_ may actually _think_ the wrote the pertinent details into the story. (Not just journalistically speaking, but even work related policy e-mails, for example.)

I'm guilty of that, too. And pay no attention to the grammar behind the curtain (or the use of ellipses and stream of conscious/run-on writing). ;-) But it wouldn't hurt for them to have someone who hasn't attained familiarity with the story do a read through before publication. Have a good day...
