I’m surprised they didn’t name Jim Acosta as one of the “persecuted” journalists.

Another manifestation of journalist’s “hero complex.” Many of them feel they are on par with members of the military.

Time used to make good choices for the “Man of the Year” until ten years ago or so, since then their choices have been whacky.

I don’t know why everyone makes a big deal of it anymore.

No one really reads Time anymore. Its circulation are freebies to doctors and dentists offices.

But, if you want a laugh, look up Time magazine in Wikipedia. In one breath it says it is the number one read weekly with 26 million readers, then in the next sentence, says its circulation is 2 million.

Sure glad Wikipedia doesn’t have any bias and is fair to all, just like Google, Twitter and Facebook!

Fuzzy math, I guess.

Nobody reads any magazine anymore. They look at their phones.

Funny how people like to congratulate themselves. Why not just nominate the grandchildren of the editors?
