It may have just been done to piss off Trumpists.
I doubt that Time would have been so specific as the Hong Kong protesters. But protesters in a broader sense (HK plus Gilets Jaunes, Chile, and others) would have been a good pick.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The HK protesters were in the poll the TIME had running along with Greta, Trump, Bernie, etc etc. So they were definitely being considered.
But yeah, it's been quiet a year for protests.
So, Time as a publication wants to piss off about 30% of it's potential audience?
While I think you could be correct it is a hysterical business decision.
No wonder people are flocking to the Internet for their "News"
