The article presents news briefs related to current events. The international community lost a world-class citizen when John O'Leary died of Lou Gehrig's disease. O'Leary, a former mayor of Portland, Maine, served as U.S. Ambassador to Chile during the period when General Pinochet was detained in London, England, and eventually charged in Chile with human rights crimes. An avid Nation reader, O'Leary championed the declassification of U.S. government documents on Chile, presented copies to the Chilean national library and insisted that the documents all be posted on the State Department website. Watch the debate between "The Nation" and "The Economist" on "What's Good for Wal-Mart Is Good for America?"
