time’s person of the year: the protester – but you americans need not worry your little heads about it
In an interesting twist, Time’s Person of the Year is not a single person, but a political type – the protester. However, this selection did not make the cover of the US edition according to the Washington Post. Below is the Shepherd Fairey cover. Is that available at the news stand? If nothing else, I hope this will be a boost to movement scholars.
UPDATE: As commenters noted, the Shepher Fairey cover will be on all editions. Thanks for the correction.

The screen grab is from a previous issue, not the person of the year issue. That issue has the same cover in the US and internationally: http://ti.me/rQyLfn
