| Tue Aug 24 21:06:42 2010 Time Magazine Now for adults! |
|
| It's no secret that I'm not a big fan of
Time Magazine. In 2006 I wrote a
blog entry criticizing Time. And in 2002 I was sufficiently upset to write a letter to the editor, which
you can
see here.
But after a while I stopped caring, since after all, they have magazines to sell, and I have better things to do (and read). So I stopped subscribing years ago. However, today The Onion published a hilarious video about Time: Advanced, which pretty much captures my feelings. It is sometimes brutal, but maybe Time has backslid even more since I last read it. To be fair, the editors are just trying to play to the lowest common denominator, so they can keep as wide a subscription base as possible. When you do that, you'll end up with something like Time. But The Onion video is awesome.
