Time magazine’s cover for its Sept. 16 issue features a picture of Russian president Vladimir Putin, complete with a black background and a damning caption that declares “America’s weak and waffling, Russia’s rich and resurgent.”

But Time’s editors are shielding Americans from the demoralizing picture in the United States. “It’s time to pay college athletes,

Africa Middle East, Europe, Asia, South Pacific get the version that tells the world that Putin saved the day, The U.S. gets the college athlete version.

Criticism of America sells well outside of America.

If this would sell in America, everybody would complain how the media isn't being patriotic.

LOL, Putin speaks English well. IN YOUR FACE Iamthesnuggler. Obviously the real story is not favorable to Obama and we all know Obama lovers can't handle the truth.

Time thinks college athletes is more important than Obama sending us into war in Syria.

Judging by the first reactions on this forum, is the decision of Time Magazine really that surprising?

You have a point there. Of course they don't report anything that does not show Obama in a bad light. If they do it has a spin on it that would curl your hair. This one, they just couldn't get around it. It's like the IRS targeting. When it's bad the media goes silent.

As reported on the cover of Time magazine "America's weak and waffling" and Candy Crowley of CNN continued her practice of shilling for Obama.

TIME magazine managing editor Rick Stengel as Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs look awfully bad when juxtaposed to this shocking behavior. Stengel is the 21st journalist to ho to work for the Obama administration.


A bought and paid for media. Can anyone guess what else is needed to achieve tyranny?

Here's a problem. . .

Obama the Nobel peace Prize recipient is declaring violence is the answer, while the RUSSIAN President, Vladimir Putin, is calling for diplomacy.
