Good job CO wing.... 

notice theres links to the websites of the other organizations involved? NY times couldn't figure out www.cap.gov ???

edit:
Also noticed they link to past reports written about organizations or including organizations... can't find anything "linked" about the reports that include or are about CAP... not even the Steve Fossett search articles... How disappointing....

So is this simple oversight [over and over], which would make me think someone should have a reduction in pay or be fired. [think dumb editor or web team]

or is this on purpose for some reason....

Yea I know I assume the worst, but I thought such a "major news source" would be better about such a simple thing...

If you haven't noticed, the NY Times is anti-Military as it can really be.  So, therefore, i am not at all surprised to see that they fubar any real contact to a military faction- or any helping agency to the Mil.  NY Times is under SNAFU mindset with the military.
