In addition, a "45 degree angle" would a) be unlikely given the partially closed window and the material at the sniper's nest (I know that there are serious doubts about the sniper nest, but these reporters are supporting the "official version"), and b) indicate that the shooter was aiming far too close to the base of the building to be the "third shot", or even the "second shot."
Sorry, I think these two reporters are selling newspapers.
Possibly, but there were a few other witnesses who saw a barrel sticking out of the window. I'm doubtful that it was fired during the assassination. It would have been smart to station someone up there as a decoy to draw attention.
