Time magazine has released their Person of the Year for 2007 ...

And it is ...

"YOU."

The issue where this is announced has a mirror on the front page to see ourselves.

Congrats to "You." :cheers:
 
eh; just Time trying to show that they're "hip" or something and that the "Main Stream Media" is still "relevant"... though if they stopped regurgitating wire feeds and actually did some journalism, they wouldn't have to fight for relevance....

Today we walked to a nearby diner (soda fountain, malts [not shakes], etc.) and I brought along the latest copy of The Economist because sometimes we have to wait in a long line to get in - people noticed and the conversation centered on that this might be one 'news' magazine remaining worth reading compared to what has become of the other once-great magazines. One lady asked for the coupon (forgot the real word of those things that fall out of magazines to help you order them) so she could order it as a present for her husband.
 
how many times has this gimmick been used in special occasion cards? it's so old it needs a new word for old.

it shouldn't be called "time" magazine... should be called "tired"
:roll:
 
Well, it's supposed to be for the person who was most influential on the news, for better or for worse. It doesn't have to be a "good" person.

I'm thinking about this....

hey, good question.

hmmmm. based on laura's comment, i'd say alex jones (of infowars.com), for being the most influential person in the alternate news realm. hands-down.

Oh, those are called "those 'gosh darn', m-f-ing, stupid, piece of poo things that always manage to fall out of the magazine when it's not convenient, and no matter how many times you swear you've removed all of them there's always a half-dozen left."

Or, at least, that's what I call them.
