Ferguson Protesters Take the Lead in TIME’s Person of the Year Poll
TIME ^ | NOVEMBER 29, 2014 | Sam Frizell

The protests over the grand jury decision this week have captivated international attention.

Ferguson protestors have gained the lead in TIME’s Person of the Year poll, with seven days to go in the voting.

Unrest in Ferguson and around the country focused attention on race and policing, helping to lift Ferguson protestors into first place in the TIME reader poll with 10.7% of the vote. Thousands of demonstrators marched in solidarity with the family of Michael Brown, an unarmed black man who was shot by the police, disrupting Black Friday shopping in San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Seattle and other cities.

TIME magazine.....who cares what they write or think. The issue is DOA when it hits the news stands. TIME and MSNBC are one in the same, has beens!!! Fact: Obamabot, Democrat, proven, would be cop killer & thug, Michael Brown is no “Obama Gentle Giant:....just a low life bully, criminal, druggie, Black racist......raised in that manner by his dysfuntional Momma & Poppa and the felons that surround them!!! End of story!!!

Wiki on Time Magazine:

During the second half of 2009 the magazine saw a 34.9% decline in newsstand sales.[14] During the first half of 2010, there was another decline of at least one-third in Time magazine sales. In the second half of 2010, Time magazine newsstand sales declined by about 12% to just over 79,000 copies per week.

Circulation for Time magazine snowballed downhill since Obama took office. As Obama stated to Ferguson protesters...'stay the course' and eventually the world will be relieved of their failed propaganda permanently.

Only because they didn’t know if they should use ISIS or ISIL so they went with the backup.

I’ll bet Time puts Brown’s face on the cover of the mag, calling him the “Hero”.

Time and Newsweak have been in the tank with the libs since I was in college, circa 1965-71 (including grad school). Even back then, U.S. News & World Report was recognized as the only one of the ‘big three’ in weekly news mags that was even remotely objective.

Don’t say much for persons of the year.

Or Time.

Personally, I’d vote Darren Wilson person of the year.

He kept us all safe from a rampaging madman, and it only cost him everything.

That’s Time’s person of the year?

How about Derek Jeter? Retired this year after an illustriuos career with the NY Yankees. Role model for every boy picking up a bat and ball. Hall of famer first ballot. Gave back to the community. And dating the hottest women on the planet.

Time features and profiles a person, group, idea or object that "for better or for worse..has done the most to influence the events of the year"
