Instant History is all about the "first draft" of history. For over seven decades, both Time and Newsweek have provided a weekly snapshot of our lives — sometimes profoundly insightful and other times woefully inadequate but, in all cases, before conventional wisdom has time to set in.

Bruce,
I have posted here on Blogcritcs before about some of My personal Involvement in The OJ Simpson Case. Also, click on My name on Google or Yahoo and Please read.
Speaking of Time Magazine, I met Face-to-Face with James Willworth of Time talking about Some of My Involvment in The OJ Simpson Case.
There Were/and Still are Legal Happenings behind the scenes, so to speak. And the books written on this Case???? DON'T even Come close to tell a Person "REALLY" what Happened in this Case.
Thanks,
Mario G. Nitirni 111

This article reads, "Essentially this meant that only mail subscribers ever saw the first [Time] cover." This is not true.

I still have them, and the Time edition has the first cover. I've never subscribed to Time.
