I don't know anything of the gentleman of whom you speak. But consider...

(1) political affiiations change. Joe Lieberman was Al Gore's VP pick in 2000. In 2008, he spoke at the Republican National Convention. Colin Powell was SecState under Bush, now he is a committed liberal.

(2) I don't feel you can read any 2 consecutive issues of that magazine (not since 2005 at least), and deny that it's very left-leaning. No magazine that claims to be anywhere near the center would have Joel Klein on staff, nor would they refer to Gov Christie as an elephant on the cover.

There is almnost no balance to that magazine. You'd need Rush Limbaugh on staff to balance Joel Klein, and they don't have that.

'Balance' means exactly what we think it means. For a magazine to be balanced, that means it gioves as much ink to conservatives as it does to liberals. TIME is nowhere near that.
