Time Magazine

Time (trademarked in capitals as TIME) is an American weekly news magazine published in New York City.
Richard Stengel has been the managing editor since 2006. Interestingly, the full form of TIME is The International Magazine of Events.
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.

It seems like TIME magazine covers news from politicians, to pop culture, to the entertainment industry to celebrities, and other important news like global warming and facebook. TIME magazine covers news in America as well as news across the world.

Time for Kids (or TFK) Written by young reporters, Time For Kids is a division magazine of Time that is especially published for children and is mainly distributed in classrooms. TFK contains some national news, a "Cartoon of the Week", and a variety of articles concerning popular culture. An annual issue concerning the environment is distributed near the end of the U.S. school term. The publication hardly ever reaches above ten pages front and back. It is used in many libraries.The magazine also runs special edition issues, and a website which offers daily news coverage and is the home of the TFK "Kid Reporter" program.

I remember reading some of the time for kids magazines in my school.
