Cloak & Swagger

The media isn't really covering this, and the headline only refers to Philip Merrill as a "publisher", but the guy's done a WHOLE lot more than that. I haven't had the time to do much data digging on this guy, but with a resume pushing this much weight:
He served as assistant secretary-general of NATO in Brussels from 1990 to 1992 and from 1983 to 1990 he served on the Department of Defense Policy Board. From 1981 to 1983, he was counselor to the undersecretary of defense for policy. In 1988, the secretary of defense awarded him the Medal for Distinguished Service, the highest civilian honor given by the department. Merrill is chairman of the board of Annapolis-based Capital-Gazette Communications Inc., which publishes Washingtonian magazine, The Capital and five other Maryland newspapers
Merrill took leave from publishing in December 2002 to be president and chairman of the Export-Import Bank of the United States. His term expired in July 2005.
When a guy like this just vanishes into thin air, or in this case, thin water, a little more coverage and investigation is probably in order wouldn't you say? http://apnews.myway.com//article/20060612/D8I6C9M00.html
