1. you should edit this....
Subject: Do you have an Issue with Hitler being named Time Magazine's Person of the Year?

Poll question: So I ask you, should Hitler have been named Time's person of the year?

Yes and no responses mean opposites, depending on which question the respondent is answering.

2. MOTY probably had a somewhat different meaning back then
Tougher to get away with naming a really bad guy POTY now (which is probably why bin Laden didn't get it in '01 and Ghouliani did - IMO, the NY rescue workers should have gotten it as a collective force). Occasionally, someone like Khomeini would be it, but for the most part, they seem to be a bit scared of going really controversial, lest it piss off some advertiser or subscriber or something.

4. TIME Magazine's Man Of The Year in 1938
It isn't easy to spot a genocidal tyrant when you live with one, especially one whom the press supports and promotes.
