After a week in which folks were buffeted by inaccurate bulletins and torrents of shouted opinions, we worked hard to fulfill what we see as our role here at TIME: getting behind the scenes to tell the real story, capturing the human emotions and historic resonances, turning random facts into reliable narratives, and putting even the wildest of weeks into smart perspective...
