Maybe.I think Anthony Cordesman was an honest broker (is he still reviewing anywhere?) and I'm certain J. Gordon Holt was never a sell out.
Cordesman never seemed to give a damn what anybody thought, and I never read a fawning, over-the-top review by him.
I also think Holt's record speaks for itself - he'd rather go out of business than pander to anybody.
But two out of hundreds is not a good record.
