TIME mag releases glowing AOC cover, but may have overlooked one hilarious – yet fitting – faux pas (full title)

March 21, 2019 | Vivek Saxena |

On Thursday, Time magazine unveiled the cover for its April 1, 2020, edition. This wouldn’t usually attract the attention of conservatives, who for the most part dislike the magazine because of its left-wing bias, except that this edition’s cover contained something unusual.

Under the date, April 1, 2020, which as a reminder denotes April Fool’s Day, was a picture of the Democrat Party’s biggest fool, socialist congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

I don't understand why in this day and age, publications continue to "pre-date" their magazines two weeks in advance.

But in this case the joke is on them--and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the April Fool.

Try a year and 2 weeks if that date is accurate. Last time I looked I was still in 2019.

“Under the date, April 1, 2020, which as a reminder denotes April Fool’s Day”

April’s Fool is the first thing I thought of. It is quite fitting for her.

gee, we haven’t seen a Time magazine in about 20 years already

so they can put any damned fool they want on their cover,
it won’t affect us

even the largest magazine sales rack in the area has not had a Time (or Newsweek) on it...for at least twenty years, it could be closer to 30

Please someone photoshop “April Fool Issue” sub on the cover image and publish it on Wiki Leaks.

This speaks volumes on so many points. They should be paying people to read their rag.

It’s a magazine that, when you say you only look at it for the pictures, you REALLY mean it. The articles are political pornography

Time magazine is what you use when you are out of toilet paper.

As a stock clerk when I was 16, we removed magazines and newspapers with a date prior to current date. An April 1 date would get removed April 2.

I have been a hard core conservative for fifty years. I am 70 years of age now. In the far past I did read Time Magazine though it was left of center. I wanted to know what the other side was thinking. Their non political articles were very good. Their political articles were left.

I read US News and World Report for the truth. Fifty years ago I also read the Economist from Britain which was then a first rate magazine.

All three today are an insult to journalism. All have been taken over by left wing political activism. They are but a shadow of their former greatness. In short, they are just plain damn crap!

That's interesting. When the real April 1 rolls around, the "news" from that magazine's date is already ten days old.

It’s pitiful, isn’t it. But what did we expect when starting in the 60’s, journalism majors all said they chose this profession because they “WANTED TO CHANGE THE WORLD.”
Sadly, that is EXACTLY what they have done.

Time is just a shell of what it once was. More like the Weekly Reader for lefties.
