 BPremium,MVM join:2000-10-28 | DSLR Article Post Misses the Point Time has rendered itself useless and its "Person of the Year" entirely meaningless. To paraphrase that sage of our time IncrediBoy, if everyone's a superhero, then no one is.
Time's "Of The Year" distinction was once intended to highlight individuals who made a difference in the world, for better or worse. Saying, uh, well EVERYONE made a difference is more than a copout and not cute in the least.
Even the wackos at Fark put that correct spin on the pathetic Time choice right from the get-go (and they published this a LOT earlier).
Lazy and supremely cowardly editors who should be ashamed to collect their paychecks. (I meant Time's ).
