Thanks, hadn't known that.
The scales came off my eyes on Time back in the 1990s when they started viciously attacking Terry Reed when _nobody_ had even heard of the guy.
He had written this book, and Time freaked out:
https://www.amazon.com/Compromised-Clinton-Bush-Terry-Reed/dp/1561712493
This proved the CIA was running drugs into Arkansas—and Terry Reed was one of the few witnesses who lived to tell the tale....
Most mass media just ignored it, but Time had a vicious hit piece that was all lies—worst slander I have ever seen attacking a then unknown person.
