Time mag hides Putin’s success from US voters
Daily Caller | 9-16-13

Posted on 09/16/2013 8:58:01 AM PDT by Arthurio

Time Magazine’s cover for its September 16 issue features a picture of contented-looking Russian president Vladimir Putin, complete with a black background and a damning caption that declares “America’s weak and waffling, Russia’s rich and resurgent.”

But Time’s editors are shielding Americans from the demoralizing picture, putting a cheerful, sky-blue photo on the covers of magazines distributed in the United States.

“It’s time to pay college athletes,” says the chirpy, non-political U.S. cover, which shows a ball-carrying football player with arm outstretched.

The cover most Americans saw at the checkout counter safely overlooked a widely perceived fumble by President Barack Obama that left Russia to carry the ball in the Syrian war.

Reminds me of the old line...

“Went into the Doctors office, and the magazines were so old, George Bush was on the cover of Time.....H.W.Bush!”

Time wants the US to help Syria's Sunni Arabs exterminate the country's minorities. Why is it a surprise that Time is making Putin's refusal to let Russia's Syrian client regime of 50 years fall look like some kind of overwhelming Russian victory to goad us into helping the Sunnis kill Alawites, Christians and other Syrian minorities? Russia's stand over Syria is just another holding action in a sea of Russian client state collapses that started with the fall of the Berlin Wall. It is not some kind of great victory for Russia.

People need to understand that this isn’t about a cheerleading press doing things to support their guy (Obama)

The powers at Time and other news outlets have long had the goal of diminishing the US in the foreighn sphere.

What they’re really doing is playing up and reinforcing that diminishment in their foreign editions while trying to keep the US public blissfully unaware. Afterall, an American public that is aware that’s it’s leaders are diminishing their country is a public that’s going to start looking for another Reagan who will set things right.

Excellent pics on this thread!

Time is part of Time Warner, formerly AOL Time Warner, and includes CNN in their network I believe. If you are patronizing these companies, you are supporting Time Magazine.

I’d defend the Times if it wasn’t merely covering for Obama’s flea-bitten behind instead of America’s in general. Because refusing to print that you just lost face to a goon of a man whose nation has an 80-year history of horrors that outdoes 1984 is understandable. But the ONLY reason they give a hoot about it is because the Magic Knee-Grow is ‘in charge’, and I use that term quite loosely.

Russia is the historical protector of Christians in the Middle East. It is part of their political DNA, for 1,000 years. Americans by and large know little and care even less about the condition and prospects for these ancient indigenous Christians, descendants of the earliest days of the Church. They perform a valuable service and it’s in their own back yard. The USA has no desire to help these people and even if it had, has no clue how to do so.

No wonder the government wants to control the Internet. How would they have been easily caught at this 30 years ago?

“You can’t hide” works both ways.

Very sad story. And the covers speak for themselves. It is also not time to pay college athletes.
