Time magazine was created in 1923 by Briton Hadden and Henry Luce,making it the first weekly news magazine in the United States.[2] The two had previously worked together as chairman and managing editor of the Yale Daily News and considered calling the magazine Facts.[3] Hadden was a rather carefree figure,who liked to tease Luce and saw Time as something important but also fun.That accounts for its tone,which many people still criticize as too light for serious news and more suited to its heavy coverage of celebrities (including politicians),the entertainment industry,and pop culture.It set out to tell the news through people,and for many decades the magazine's cover was of a single person.The first issue of Time was published on March 2,1923,featuring on its cover Joseph G.Cannon,the retired Speaker of the United States House of Representatives; a facsimile reprint of Issue No.1,including all of the articles and advertisements contained in the original,was included with copies of the February 28,1938 issue as a commemoration of the magazine's 15th anniversary.[4] On Hadden's death in 1929,Luce became the dominant man at Time and a major figure in the history of 20th-century media.According to Time Inc.:The Intimate History of a Publishing Enterprise 1972鈥?004 by Robert Elson,"Roy Edward Larsen [鈥?was to play a role second only to Luce's in the development of Time Inc." In his book,The March of Time,1935鈥?951,Raymond Fielding also noted that Larsen was "originally circulation manager and then general manager of Time,later publisher of Life,for many years president of Time,Inc.,and in the long history of the corporation the most influential and important figure after Luce."
Around the time they were raising US$100,000 from rich Yale alumni like Henry P.Davison,partner of J.P.Morgan & Co.,publicity man Martin Egan and J.P.Morgan & Co.banker Dwight Morrow,Henry Luce and Briton Hadden hired Larsen in 1922 鈥 although Larsen was a Harvard graduate and Luce and Hadden were Yale graduates.After Hadden died in 1929,Larsen purchased 550 shares of Time Inc.,using money he obtained from selling RKO stock which he had inherited from his father,who was the head of the B.F.Keith theatre chain in New England.However,after Briton Hadden's death,the largest Time Inc.stockholder was Henry Luce,who ruled the media conglomerate in an autocratic fashion,"at his right hand was Larsen," Time Inc.'s second-largest stockholder,according to "Time Inc.:The Intimate History of a Publishing Enterprise 1923鈥?941".In 1929,Roy Larsen was also named a Time Inc.director and a Time Inc.vice-president.J.P.Morgan retained a certain control through two directorates and a share of stocks,both over Time and Fortune.Other shareholders were Brown Brothers W.A.Harriman & Co.,and The New York Trust Company (Standard Oil).
By the time of Henry Luce's death in 1967,the Time Inc.stock which Luce owned was worth about US$109 million and yielded him a yearly dividend income of more than US$2.4 million,according to The World of Time Inc:The Intimate History Of A Changing Enterprise 1960鈥?989 by Curtis Prendergast.The value of the Larsen family's Time Inc.stock was now worth about $80 million during the 1960s and Roy Larsen was both a Time Inc.director and the chairman of its Executive Committee,before serving as Time Inc.'s vice-chairman of the board until the middle of 1979.According to the September 10,1979 issue of The New York Times,"Mr.Larsen was the only employee in the company's history given an exemption from its policy of mandatory retirement at age 65."
After Time magazine began publishing its weekly issues in March 1923,Roy Larsen was able to increase its circulation by utilizing U.S.radio and movie theaters around the world.It often promoted both "Time" magazine and U.S.political and corporate interests.According to The March of Time,as early as 1924,Larsen had brought Time into the infant radio business with the broadcast of a 15-minute sustaining quiz show entitled Pop Question which survived until 1925." Then,according to the same book,"In 1928 [鈥?Larsen undertook the weekly broadcast of a 10-minute programme series of brief news summaries,drawn from current issues of Time magazine [鈥?which was originally broadcast over 33 stations throughout the United States."
Larsen next arranged for a 30-minute radio programme,The March of Time,to be broadcast over CBS,beginning on March 6,1931.Each week,the programme presented a dramatisation of the week's news for its listeners,thus Time magazine itself was brought "to the attention of millions previously unaware of its existence," according to Time Inc.:The Intimate History Of A Publishing Enterprise 1923鈥?941,leading to an increased circulation of the magazine during the 1930s.Between 1931 and 1937,Larsen's The March of Time radio programme was broadcast over CBS radio and between 1937 and 1945 it was broadcast over NBC radio 鈥 except for the 1939 to 1941 period when it was not aired.People Magazine was based on Time's People page.
Time became part of Time Warner in 1989 when Warner Communications and Time,Inc.merged.Jason McManus succeeded Henry Grunwald in 1988 as Editor-in-Chief and oversaw the transition before Norman Pearlstine succeeded him in 1995.
[edit] 2000s
Since 2000,the magazine has been part of AOL Time Warner,which subsequently reverted to the name Time Warner in 2003.
In 2007,Time moved from a Monday subscription/newsstand delivery to a schedule where the magazine goes on sale Fridays,and is delivered to subscribers on Saturday.The magazine actually began in 1923 with Friday publication.
During early 2007,the year's first issue was delayed for approximately a week due to "editorial changes." The changes included the job losses of 49 employees.[5]
In 2009,Time announced that they were introducing a personalised print magazine,Mine,mixing content from a range of Time Warner publications based on the reader's preferences.The new magazine met with a poor reception,with criticism that its focus was too broad to be truly personal.[6]
