It would have collided with their wished outcome. The one that got their #1 spot on the poll is actually not supposed to be above the guy you mentioned. But he does not understand it and thinks he can be in the same league. Let's see when he gets the wake-up call. I don't think it's going to be too soon because all the others need the money & the support from him. #17 you got it! and the fact that it didn’t get #1 on their polls forced them to change the front page to this silly “You” thing.

Is this their way of trying to woo back the internet generation by playing to our vanity? If it is, they are doomed. We don't need Time to tell us the what is "the news" anymore. The public now can determine for themselves what is important and voice their opinions on it directly. We no longer need some old men in a New York high rise to judge what we should be told or then what to think about it. They have lost all their power and clout. Long live the blogs!
