Time magazine was first published on the 3rd of March, 1923, in New York City. It was founded by Briton Hadden and Henry Luce, both born in 1898, and was the first weekly news magazine in the United States. The cover price of the first issue was 15 cents.
Time magazine has been owned by Marc Benioff and his wife Lynne since October 2018, when they purchased it from Meredith Corporation for $190 million. Benioff is the chairman and co-CEO of Salesforce.com, but Time operates separately from that company.
Time coined or popularized a number of words that entered common usage, including "socialite", "guesstimate", "televangelist", "pundit", and "tycoon". The magazine also introduced the names "World War I" and "World War II" in 1939.
Person of the Year (formerly Man of the Year) recognizes whoever had the biggest impact on news headlines in the past twelve months, for good or ill. Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin have both received the designation. In 2017, Time named the "Silence Breakers", people who came forward with accounts of sexual harassment, as Person of the Year.
Time introduced its red cover border in 1927, and it has become the magazine's most recognizable visual feature. The border has changed color only eight times since then, including a black border after the September 11 attacks, a green border for the Earth Day issue of the 28th of April, 2008, and a border listing the names of people for the George Floyd protest cover on the 15th of June, 2020.
For the six months ending the 31st of December, 2024, Time's combined print and digital circulation was one million, down 7.1% year-on-year. In early 2023, the magazine had 1.3 million print subscribers and 250,000 digital subscribers, compared to a circulation of 3.3 million in 2012.
