Kranish-Elliott Re-Creation

The BeldarBlog has a fun fictional speculative re-creation of the telephone interview of Captain George Elliott by the Boston Globe’s Michael Kranish.

If accurate, it could explain much. One quibble, though: As noted below, Kranish probably didn’t call Elliott “Captain” in the interview.

Has the Boston Globe yet said if Kranish taped his Elliott interview? I can find no evidence that the Globe has answered this question (or been asked, for that matter). Yet, given the significance, high profile and controversial nature of the subject matter, it might have been done.
