there is no journalism in mass releasing stolen, irrelevant, and unimportant diplomatic cables or dangerous files like shopping lists of targets for terrorists to attack and afghan informant identification (names and locations) . perhaps if anything not garbage or disgusting was released he would have made it. this guy is a pos molesterer and murderer. TIME should not honour those sorts of people. he is scum.
Edit: MrBubbles person of the year is Commander Shephard.

Nothing you said made any sense.
I'd also like to point out that Stalin, Hitler and Ayatollah have been named Person of the Year. It's about impact, whether it's positive or negative should be irrelevant. Time just chickened out because they'd catch some flack from all the US businessman and politicians who have had their dirty laundry shown to the public.

Well just because Times named horrible people man of the year in the past doesn't mean they should continue repeating that mistake. The fact that Bin Laden wasn't named man of the year highlights that maybe Times has decided not to glorify terrorists.

"Terrorists" is just a label. To many other countries we are are terrorists attacking their lifestyles and beliefs across the world. Bin Laden is what you would call a religious fighter, like Saladin and Baldwin IV of Jerusalem was during the crusades. During each crusade the attacking armies could be called terrorists. Even the South's defection from the union formed a terrorist nation bent on destroying the North's way of life (in context of the American Civil War for anyone not from the USA).
BTW, Im just pissed JA wasnt named 2010 POTY, he is still the runner up...
