Just about every magazine that started off with a certain theme, has changed over the years to what makes them money. They are just changing with the times and they have to stay in business so the direction a lot of these once political themed mags are going in makes sense. For instance Vogue use to only put models on the cover, now they are putting pop girls, because they usually sell the most magazines. Beyoncé had the highest selling Vogue cover in 2013 if I'm not mistaken.

Time and Forbes want to make money, so they will discuss or place the most popular celebrities on the cover. Bey is known to be a huge magazine seller, so of course Vogue, Time, Elle etc will use her name and image to sell it's magazines. I love Pink, I'm a huge fan, she's very successful but for some reason she lacks star power. There is nothing wrong with that though. Celine Dion was very successful in the 90s and outsold most of her peers. However, she lacked the star power of Madonna, Whitney and Janet etc.

Indeed. I'm just saying it's suspicious and a little sad that those two legendary publications are resorting to such a tabloid tactic. P!nk doesn't lack star power. She rejects it. She goes out of her way to seem normal. Take TMZ and Perez Hilton. I haven't read anything negative about P!nk on those sites in years. Is she that respected that they won't drag her name? Does she pay them not to trash her?

I apologize if I'm seeming all conspiracy theorist but this class I'm taking really has me thinking about the media and how we don't so much consume information as get force fed it. So I think it's good to raise some dissent about any topic that the various media outlets bring up. Just to question their opinions. Why are news sources having opinions at all? The facts should be stated and the reader/viewer should be left to come to their own conclusion. But that's not the way it is anymore, for the most part.

Nope

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. I thought TIME was a respected publication, not a tabloid rag.

Ch, Bey has mainly hits, not #1s.

So random. I'm tied of this X star is the next/new X. It's so overdone.

just another day

Time wouldn't lie.

Another huge praise, and the kids are mad. Job done.

TIME revealing the tea

Oh brother.

There are definitely hardcore Beyonce fans at Time. They can't stop writing about her.

I enjoyed this issue of TIME Very informative.

Beyonce buys her awards, accolades, articles ... Let's call it what it is Beyonce owns the damn industry
