Time magazine today unveiled its list of the 100 most influential people and Univision anchor Jorge Ramos is on it.
Jorge is on one of 5 separate covers of the magazine’s 12th annual Time 100 issue, which goes on sale Friday.
The other four covers feature Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Bradley Cooper, Kanye West and Misty Copeland.
The list is divided into 5 categories: titans, pioneers, artists, leaders and icons. The profiles are written by other notable people.
CNN’s chief international correspondent Christiane Amanpour penned Jorge’s profile, included in the leaders category, where you can also find Cuban president Raúl Castro, Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton, among others.
The Time 100 annual list is compiled by Time editors.

Congratulations, Jorge! Great news and greatly deserved! I disagree with Kanye West being one of the influencers as well: it’s a sad reality, I guess. Such a rude, disrespectful way to “lead” others. Blessings!

Angie Perez,
The name of the category is “most influential people” but it could be negative influence.
A good example is Jorge Ramos who badly influence’s millions by being biased in his reporting and presenting of the news. Ramos is also a bad influence when he gives the news and makes commentary (usually defending immigrants) at the same time. People can not see this as a negative influence because Spanish media has created in them a “victim complex” His influence allienates and divides, all for the sake of the rating$
So as you can see Angie, Ramos is in fact at the same level (or lower) of West.

Whatta joke.
Influential ? at which level ? toward what kind of, well, what ?
5 categories ? try a 6th one TIME: bullshitters !
Btw, as Victor stated, those covers have been full of pretty much, all kind of crappy characters throughout its history.
I guess the trend continues.
Anyhow, who reads Time anymore ?
Angie Perez says
I guess some people prefer the grossly liberal bias on CNN or the extreme opposite on Fox News, which almost seems like the Tea Party’s P.R. channel. Oh, well… I say it again: Congratulations Jorge! VERY well deserved! You are a journalist with true gut. Blessings!
Victor Tejas says
There is no evidence that in his 30+ years at Univision his “true gut” Journalism has benefited anybody other than his bank account and his Univision bosses… Atole con el dedo…la virgen de guadalupe, el soccer, las alfombras rojas, las telenovelas y ramos son parte de la formulita de hacer dinero… too bad that infotainment a la Ramos has slowly but surely turn into a cancer along with the aforementioned TV gimmicks.
