CHARLIE ROSE DOES AN INFOMERCIAL FOR TIME MAGAZINE

Files under General | Mar 19th

This is not Charlie Rose at his best.

At all.

Mediabistro calls the interview an infomercial.

Richar Stengel, managing editor of TIME magazine’s, favorite word during the interview is “great, great, great.”

Not the new cover.

Not the new formula.

Not the new design.

Today I saw old issues from two weeks ago in my supermarket magazine rack!

Dead meat.

I am sorry, but I don’t get it.

TIME’s managing editor says “what is a commodity,” but the real question is:

Why do we need TIME?

TIME is irrelevant.

This change is about cosmetics, and not a very good one.

TIME is out.

TIME is lost.

LIFE was the first casualty.

TIME will be the next one.

Wait and see.

Thanks to Guillermo Nagore in New York.
