Time names Facebook's Zuckerberg 'Person of the Year'; Should he be?

But before we get to the reaction, let's give Time a chance. Time in a statement says it has "the most comprehensive portrait of Zuckerberg to date." As if we didn't get enough of Zuck on Oprah and 60 Minutes.
Time also gushes that a billion pieces of content are posted on Facebook a day and it is closing on 600 million users.
Can we give Wikileaks Julian Assange a write-in vote (he was a runner-up)? How about naming the Tea Party group of the year (another runner-up). Maybe Craig Venter for the creating the synthetic cell. How about Chilean miners (yet another runner-up)? Or better yet how about the rescuers or Chilean President Sebastian Roberto Echeñique for rallying a country?
These are the debates Time just loves.
