Rigging Elections--for Reporter Hotness

Farhad Manjoo has the story of how two reporters rigged an "election" on who is the hottest reported in DC.

Has my generation stooped so low in the self-esteem category that we have to rig elections so that people can know how attractive we are? The two "winners" are attractive enough people. Is the desire to win and validate our self-esteeem so great that "hot-ness" is a contest that one must cheat at to win?
