A case of sour grapes

In reference to Bill Brooks’ Monday letter on Donald Trump being named Time magazine’s person of the year, the magazine has named a man or person of the year since 1938. Brooks chooses to cite 11 of those recipients in which to lump Trump.

If Brooks had done his homework, he would have learned just what the guidelines are for the person of the year determination. According to Wikipedia, “The person of the year … is an annual issue of the United States news magazine Time, that features and profiles a person, a group, an idea, or an object that for better or worse, has done the most to influence the events of the year.”

It sounds like Brooks is suffering from a case of sour grapes.
