He'd already conquered Austria. For goodness sake the cover image was, to quote Time, "Hitler playing his hymn of hate in a desecrated cathedral while victims dangle on a St. Catherine's wheel and the Nazi hierarchy looks on".

Yeah I don't think being person of the year requires that you be a good guy.

This is stupid.

When did Gotti get it?

Chilean miners was done to bandwagon, nothing else. The minute they were pulled from the hole, the world stop caring and any influence had (if any) fizzled just like the news coverage.

My bad, he just made the cover once. I saw it on some movie about him years ago where some dons talked about it and i thought it was the person of the year. but it was just this..

but the name is known the world over. no one's forgotten. everytime the phrase is said it inspires hope. the news wasn't as polular in the u.s. afterwards. but in central and south america it's very well known and popular. They're somewhat heroes/celebrities down there because of such an incident and their trials.
