Talk:Time (magazine)

Sales and circulation.

I wanted to put in both the single copy sales and the circulation numbers for the second half of 2010 - but I have been unable to find the numbers.

I suggest someone else tries - and does the job I have tried, and failed, to do.91.107.69.48 (talk) 23:19, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Jewish hiring policy

It find it conspicuous the very, very large number of Jewish journalists working for TIME. Michael Kinsley, Charles Krauthammer, Lev Grossman, Joe Klein, David Van Biema and many many more are known for their public support for Israel and the zionist cause. It must be known whether TIME is has an official pro-Israel policy and whether it is under Israeli influence. ADM (talk) 20:46, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

What an utterly ridiculous statement. As a former staffer for the magazine, I object to the insinuation, as well as stating that what you have implied is categorically untrue. MarmadukePercy (talk) 01:36, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

I urge you to retract your offensive, unfounded comments. Bsimmons666 (talk) 22:05, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

I think the original question was a reasonable one. Does Time have a pro-Israel policy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.107.238.150 (talk) 11:45, 8 June 2010 (UTC)82.7.192.163 (talk) 23:26, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Have you read the articles in the magazine? Read, and judge for yourself. --Ericdn (talk) 20:34, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

I do not like Time magazine - but I have certainly never seen any pro Israeli bias in its news coverage. If anything there is an anti Israeli bias. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.107.238.150 (talk) 11:38, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

There have been recurring allegations of explicit anti-semitism and anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian bias. Would be interesting to see how regularly they visit the Gulf... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.156.14 (talk) 23:23, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Whither the newsweeklies

Per a prior discussion on this page, an interesting piece from The Washington Post's media critic Howard Kurtz on "Do Newsmags Still Matter?": [1] MarmadukePercy (talk) 02:48, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Move to Time Magazine?

Could we move this article to Time Magazine. That is what it is usually called and just looks better than Time (magazine). --Apoc2400 (talk) 20:28, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

According to the article here in Wikipedia, the magazine is trademarked under the name TIME. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to title the article "Time Magazine", as that is not the official title of the magazine, regardless of popular useage. --Ericdn (talk) 20:36, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't it therefore be renamed TIME (magazine).--Ezeu (talk) 23:41, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Keep. The title is correct without the word "Magazine". TIME refers to itself (in the magazine) as TIME, not "Time Magazine". I'm undecided on the capitalization issue. Rolling Stone refers to itself in its articles using capital letters, too. (Small caps actually. See the article on Small caps-- apparently, Newsweek does too.)

Reporting on the Catholic Church

I noticed that TIME has been reporting on the Church since at least the 1920s Progressive Era, often with its associated progressivist (and critical) ideological bent. For instance, if you look at the newspaper sources for the article on 1920s Cardinal George Mundelein, they all come from TIME magazine. It would be interesting to find out why TIME has done so much reporting on the subject. ADM (talk) 05:31, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

It is no secret that Time magazine hates both Roman Catholic doctrines (such as the Catholic opposition to abortion and Catholic teaching against homosexual acts) and hates the Roman Catholic church as an institution - and hates the present Pope personally (see the recent cover article "being Pope means never having to say your sorry", which was part of general media smear campaign implying that the present Pope covered up child sex abuse - which he did not).

However, the First Amendment means that a newspaper or magazine can have any opinions they want. No one is forced to buy Time magazine - and those who do buy it know that they are getting a "liberal" left view of the world, and there is nothing wrong with a magazine providing that.91.107.238.150 (talk) 11:37, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Time Lapse Video -→ 85 years (1923 - 2008^AD) of TIME Magazine's Front Covers!

Should that be included inside this article? 118.107.241.2 (talk) 06:13, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't this be note worthy on the Wiki Page of the time? It's a fact that the letters spell out what they spell out so at least a note would be good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SteveClement (talk • contribs) 09:35, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

TIME Magazine editions in public domain: external www.time.com links

According to what has been detalied in an archived section of this talk page, I am putting bellow the links from the time.com archive search engine results that match exaclty the covers of the editions of the magazine that went on public domain:

• 1923-1934
• 1935-1936
• 1939-1940
• 1945

That’s it.--MaGioZal (talk) 06:19, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Circulation.

Time Magazine's circulation for 2009 is not given in the article - an update is clearly needed.91.107.104.32 (talk) 20:06, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Do it then. raseaC^{talk to me} 20:54, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

I note that an update has been given, but it states that Time magazine circulation is 3.4 million for 2009 - the same number as for 2008, and 2007. It does not seem likely that the magazine would have the same circulation three years in a row - and giving the same number does not fit with the massive decline in newsstand sales (are we supposed to be believe that lots of extra people have taken out a subscription to Time?).

It is time for an investigation into possible circulation fraud.91.107.238.150 (talk) 11:42, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

bias?

Anything about Time's political bias? Junuxx (talk) 23:52, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I must say. Why is there no discussion of TIME Magazine's bias? That seems to be a form of bias in and of itself, not shining an opposing viewpoint on their journalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.205.173.24 (talk) 20:44, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Europe?

This article states: "Time Europe covers the Middle East, Africa and, since 2003, Latin America." Presumably, it ALSO covers the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America in addition to Europe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.158.61.139 (talk) 17:41, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
