The Atlantic isn’t known for journalistic excellence.

When Bush was president, there was a hit piece that led off with a line about George W. Bush’s team the Houston Astros playing at crony corporatist Ken Lay’s Enron field. When notified that Bush owned the Rangers, not the Astros, the line was changed to that team. When informed that the Rangers play at a field in Arlington and that the Astros play in Houston (at Enron, now Minute Maid Park), the opening paragraph was edited once again.

Criminy. I’m surprised they didn’t by accusing Bush of “structuring” his ownership of The Rangers in order to conceal his association with Ken Lay, Enron, et al.
