Time's lineup of columnists betrays its readers and distorts the public discourse in a Limbaugh-like direction. It also proves a larger point: That America's most influential magazine can carry this imbalance so long without anyone paying attention--and can win the industry's most coveted award while doing so--ought to put to rest any arguments that the media elite are part of some liberal conspiracy. Indeed, media machers have grown so accustomed to conservative domination, they no longer notice it.

I cancelled Time in the late 90's. And I see they've gone way downhill since then. I agree with everything Alterman writes here except that they somehow don't notice the extreme vitriol towards liberals. I feel it's very deliberate.
