David Simon floods the zone

I knew the clueless windbag executive editor from The Wire's Baltimore Sun looked familiar. At left, "James C. Whiting III." At right Howell Raines, executive editor of the New York Times during the Jayson Blair era. [h/t Bruno]

More than Whiting, Raines looks like Brian Cox http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004051/

Are we sure Raines new job is not trying to kill Jason Bourne.

Hmmm. So when did he fix his "deviated septum?"

Oh wait, different guys. Nevermind.

Looks like the same guy: take away those fancy suspenders, mess up his hair a little, make him trade in the expensive shirt and tie for cheaper ones, and force him to look less intelligent - and you have Haines.
