In the Drs. office yesterday I picked up a Time magazine from 5/03 and there was an article about Bush and the Assault weapon ban...it was so one sided ....I never read Time so I was suprised by it's liberal slant.....another magazine I'll never read...............:mad:

[Mark Tyson]

Time is infamously one-sided.

[AJ Dual]

LIFE magazine is for people who can't read.

And TIME is for people who can't think.



Ouch. I'm pretty sure that one is older than I am...

[DorGunR]

I quit reading Time back in the 60s when I saw the one sided crap they were printing about Vietnam........they were as wrong as two left feet .......Hell I know, I was there.:mad:

[Wildalaska]

The only time I see Time magazine is when I take my wife to the gyno...I dont read it...

The barbershop has shotgun news. My dentist has Front Sight and Guns and Ammo. My doc usually has Sports Afield...

Time not only is leftist in slant but several of their CEOs and executives have stated that gun control is a policy they will actively push.

"By a curiosity of evolution, every human skull harbors a prehistoric vestige: a reptilian brain. This atavism, like a hand grenade cushioned in the more civilized surrounding cortex, is the dark hive where many of mankind's primitive impulses originate. To go partners with that throwback, Americans have carried out of their own history another curiosity that evolution forgot to discard as the country changed from a sparsely populated, underpoliced agrarian society to a modern industrial civilization. That vestige is the gun -- most notoriously the handgun, an anachronistic tool still much in use."
--- Time, April 13, 1981

"As you probably know by now, Time's editors, in the April 13 issue, took a strong position in support of an outright ban on handguns for private use."
--- Time Magazine, Letter to NRA, April 24, 1981

"My guess [is] . . . that the great majority of Americans are saying they favor gun control when they really mean gun banishment. . . . I think the country has long been ready to restrict the use of guns, except for hunting rifles and shotguns, and now I think we're prepared to get rid of the damned things entirely -- the handguns, the semis and the automatics. "
--- Roger Rosenblatt (Time Magazine columnist), Get Rid of the Damned Things, Time, Aug. 9, 1999, at 38.

"Time national correspondent Jack E. White one-upped Mr. Thomas: "Whatever is being proposed is way too namby-pamby. I mean, for example, we're talking about limiting people to one gun purchase or handgun purchase a month. Why not just ban the ownership of handguns when nobody needs one? Why not just ban semi-automatic rifles? Nobody needs one."
--- L. Brent Bozell III, Lock-and-Load Mode Against the 2nd, Washington Times, May 8, 1999, at A12.

I subscribed to Time for a long time, and a while back I got fed up with their anti-gun slant and I switched to a different news magazine (not Newsweek!).

Too bad, too, because I think Time is well-written, beautifully laid out, and covers non-news topics very well (they were my favorite movie reviewers). The magazine I read now is not as fun or interesting, but at least I am not empowering the gun-grabbers at Time with my subscription money.

I haven't bought an issue of Time since 1972, when I finished college, quit working assorted part-time jobs and went to work at a single full-time job, and grew up.

Would that be the same L. Brent Bozell of
The Parents' Television Council (http://www.parentstv.org),
The Media Research Center (http://www.mediaresearch.org)
and the
Catholic League (http://www.catholicleague.org/)?

Man, this guy's got his fingers in everything. Whaddya wanna bet he's never held a real job.

[Bartholomew Roberts]

Bozell was pointing out the bias of Time magazine national correspondent Jack White in a column for the Washington Times. As far as I know, Bozell is not anti-gun and considering he is writing for the Washington Times, probably pro-gun.

I've never, and won't ever, buy an issue of Time magazine.:barf:

[Don Gwinn]

I'd say running the MRC is no less legitimate than running Time magazine, as real jobs go.

While that may have described a lot of us on August 9, 1999, after September 11, 2001 things have changed.

I'm surprised the leftists haven'e blamed the NRA/GOA/JPFO for 9/11.
:rolleyes:

[Combat-wombat]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was this article

I noticed that and hated it.

Some years ago, the Library of Congress did a study of news magazines. The results were that Time and Newsweek were found to be the two most inaccurate, heavily biased magazines of their type. Interestingly enough, The American Rifleman was found to be the second MOST accurate and unbiased.

Thanks for the info. I just cancelled my subscription. I knew they were leftist and I don't mind getting their perspective but I refuse to give them my money to further any aims they have toward gun control.

Let's not forget AOLTIMEWarner controls way more than just a single magazine. :fire: :barf:
