I've haven't bought and read a magazine like Time or Newsweek in years.

[trumad]

First off.. why should I when I can read it online...Secondly: By the time it's published and out on the street, it's old news.

1. Third... they're ridiculously biased.

I read Time when I first became a news junkie in high school but I haven't read it in almost ten years.

DU and The Daily Show cover the bases so much better.

10. Also, TIME has become a showcase of religious articles.

No harm in showing other points of view, but every season from Lent to Christmas brings a new examination of Mary or faith or Mary Magdelene etc.

unless you're looking at your own webcam site.

4. When I was in high school back in the fifties we actually had to

read "Times" for our current events class. They even offered student discounts on their subscriptions. My dad, a conservative, thought they were so liberal. Actually, back then they were journalistic and unbiased. Boy do things change.

5. Third: YOU have never been on the cover (until now). n/t

6. They're dismal rags that have become almost unreadable.

I hadn't picked up a copy of Time in years until the other day, when I was astonished to see it looks like Television: full of jangling graphics, replete with factoids and almost entirely about entertainment of some sort.

7. Hate to be cynical, but....

I suspect that "you" will buy more of these issue than the Time's "someone" POTY of the past.

8. Is it Time or Newsweek that's a front for the CIA??

[scarface2004]

9. me too....

they are so 20th century...who's funding that bird cage liner?

[devilgrrl]

12. You haven't bought for good reason. They're CRAP!

Here's to you for saving your hard earned dollars. :applause:
