The British are coming! The popularity of The Guardian's Web site skyrocketed during the Iraq war. We talk to New York magazine's Michael Wolff about a new American version of the London-based newspaper that's in the offing. Also, will a seemingly stealth stadium and high-rise housing project rise in downtown Brooklyn? And Bush takes a dive in the latest Newsweek poll.
