narconews.com and mark bowden of the atlantic's staff and the guy who wrote "killing pablo" is where i'd look. mind that you're going to get well-researched attempts at the full story with him, but it's not going to be real-time material. but if you wanted a good treatment of 80's central american drug trade and the politics that accompanied it's fast and pretty fun like most of his shit.

Thanks Jamesn, Killing Pablo is great as is most of Bowden's stuff. I love a lot of the nonfiction books on the subject but I had heard good reviews on Savages and the subject matter is right up my alley the problem is that the author was a ball of ass, at least for this particular book.
Thanks for the link to that site as well
