This piece about the gang-ruled favelas of Rio is breathtaking both for the cast-iron balls of its writer - Jon Lee Anderson - and its insights. It confirms what I've thought for a while: the New Yorker is on a hot streak.
It also got me wondering. Why didn't Chicago and Madrid simply print a copy of the article for every IOC member? Rio wouldn't have made it past the first vote.
