That, and the fact that the article is horribly written. It's like the editor went "Holy &#!! it's 9/11 coming up! Quick, someone write an article!" half an hour before going to press.



I don't feel that way.

I particularly liked this paragraph:

There was no terror or confusion at the Associated Press. There was, instead, that feeling of history being manufactured; although the office was as crowded as he'd ever seen it, there was, instead, "the wonderful calm that comes into play when people are really doing their jobs."


"Ed. Note: This article originally appeared in the September 2003 issue of Esquire."

the editor actually went "Holy &#!! it's 9/11 coming up! Quick, what can we post?!" five minutes before going to press.
