When did anyone say the Tea Party protests didn't count? :shrug:
again, this source is a right-wing, anti-Muslim, anti-Arab biased rag.
please find an article critical of Time magazine from a slightly less biased source.
If it's so biased, it should be easy for even those stingy with the intellectual prowess to prove it's content incorrect, good sir.
Time’s ‘Person of the Year’: Dishonest and Delusional | FrontPage Magazine
Maybe you can show me in the article where they included them.
Time Magazine said:In the U.S., the Obama campaign was in part a feel-good protest movement that galvanized young people, and then its shocking success and the Wall Street bailout produced an angry and shockingly successful populist protest movement in the Tea Party, which has far outlasted its expected shelf life.
..Emphasis mine. Would you like me to keep looking, because I found your answer on page 2. There could be more as there are about 5 more pages.
*Edit:
It's a big internet out there, Rev, maybe choose a slightly less hacky source to get your info?

It's a good thing, because if TM decided not to mention the TP, they would lose almost all credibility. Like it or not, the TP was there and threw a lot of weight around with those protests.
it was stupid for folks to say that the article didn't include TP, simply due to the picture on the cover.
folks should have the integrity & honesty to actually read articles before they soo vehemently condemn them.
note on the cover "from the arab spring to the OWS", I guess the tea party wasn't protests. :ssst:
see, this is some of the dishonesty I was referring to.
the front cover doesn't say "from the Arab Spring to OWS".
It surely does, oh wait, you are substituting semantics for intellectual discourse... My bad.
armed Muslim Brotherhood protester in Egypt?
attention-whoring lazy rich kid in Seattle?
wow, you're dishonest discriptions of the OWSers and the protesters in Tahrir Square are amazing.
No, I pretty much nailed it.
semantics? this isn't an issue of semantics.
its an issue of purposefully falsely-quoting the cover of the magazine.
the title does not say "from Arab Spring to OWS", and yet you stated it did. you omitted much of the actual text.
why? because the actual text doesn't support your biased claim.
This is a good thing though I wish the article had given a little bit more detail. I'll try and find a better source. Thoughts? Comments?

"From the Arab Spring to Athens. From Occupy Wall Street to Moscow"
This is the TRUE text of the cover.
gotcha games are so juvenile.
so is dishonestly quoting the cover of a magazine, so as to coveniently omit words that defeat one's argument.
So #ows was the inspiration for the Arab spring?
Other way around big guy....
I'm still waiting on your point.
Although Occupy China hasn't been doing so well.
As a side-conversation from this strange dispute, Occupy China hasn't been doing so well.
