Well, I just went back and read the entire piece, my opinion of it remains unchanged. He makes some good points about media condescension and completely undermines them by his own arrogance. Typical for Time Magazine. If it was ever good it was long before my time, I'm 48 and have had the misfortune to have been reading this rag since I was 10 years old.
I didn't think your initial comment was off-base, but some of the others on this thread look a whole like knee-jerk reactions.
