Interesting Enron Link

Kausfiles links to an interesting article by Matt Miller, with whom I had not previously been familiar. Miller is careful to avoid a broad defense of Enron's Skilling, but is not shy about pointing out some of the excesses and inconsistencies of the man's (and Enron's) wilder critics. This article seems further evidence of a growing skepticism regarding the Enronian vast conspiracy. The article also suggests that there may be a wider, deeper understanding developing that what went wrong at Enron is potentially a lot more interesting and profound than playing the matter as if it were a lost episode of "The Untouchables," as much of the media has been doing - led by the excitable New York Times. But the matter is far from settled - and actual, even criminal, fraud is still a possibility.
