Worth the read

One of the great things about The New Yorker is that they are one of the few places to still do long form journalism. (But now that Sarah Palin has decided to save journalism, this may change.)

Lawrence Wright's The Apostate: Paul Haggis Vs. the Church of Scientology is an amazing piece of long form. I appreciate well sourced and well written pieces even when I don't like the subject, but Scientology fascinates me.
