CHICAGO — Mayor Rahm Emanuel is this week's Timemagazine cover story, an overview of his tumultuous first term in which he is described as "arrogant, chesty, prickly, yes, but never stupid."

Headlined "Chicago Bull," the story depicts Chicago as "a cash-strapped city in a flat broke state" with budget, crime, racial, unemployment and infrastructure problems, a place of "mutual suspicion and failing schools."
