TIME magazine: Person of the Year 2018


Comment on the appropriateness of TIME magazine’s selection for ‘Person of the Year’ for 2018 (keep in mind ‘person’ is open to interpretation based on TIME’s history and use). 

Do you feel this was a strong selection?  What does it say about MEDIA in 2018?  What statement is TIME trying to make?  Identify one other news story or video which you feel supports your position on whether or not TIME’s selection was a good one. 

Feel free to consider the runner-up nominees when formulating your response; but this is not necessary. (Donald Trump, Robert Mueller, Ryan Coogler, March For Our Lives Activists, Moon Jae-in, Meghan Markle), but this is not necessary.
