The problem was Moody not having read the paper when Harry brought it into the meeting.

doesn't harry just need to carry a few sheets of paper or have it folded into a book? I don't remember this being the case but it would prevent moody from reading it, presumably.

A good point. But of course he was looking for threats to Harry, not threats from Harry.

Yes, but this is Alastor CONSTANT VIGILANCE Moody dealing with someone who actually landed a hit on him. Even if it involved massive cheating and handicaps.

Constant vigilance does not mean unlimited attention.
