Some will see Time's choice as a snub of Edward Snowden, reviving talk about how the mainstream press has treated Snowden and @ggreenwald.
.@MickiMaynard @brianstelter Snowden had had international impact. Just sayin'

@ron_fournier@MickiMaynard@brianstelter And it's not a snub, but a cop out. Feel good POTY over the impactful, unpopular option. -
.
@jerdemink@MickiMaynard@brianstelter Or it's a legit pick that we just happen to disagree with. Why is everything zero-sum? -
@ron_fournier@jerdemink@brianstelter you, in DC, ask that question? -
.
@MickiMaynard@jerdemink@brianstelter I need me some Michigan. 2 weeks. -
@ron_fournier@jerdemink@brianstelter when you come home, ask 5 non-journo relatives who Snowden is. Then ask who Pope Francis is. -
.
@MickiMaynard@jerdemink@brianstelter Good point. Of course, all my relatives are Catholic and none know NSA from NASCAR -
@ron_fournier@jerdemink@brianstelter exactly. In the "real world" everyone figures the government was spying, anyway. -
@MickiMaynard@jerdemink@brianstelter Don't know about that -- and, if true, still doesn't make it right nor does it mitigate revelations - 3 more replies
