10 of Time’s “Top 10 of Everything in 2008” By Liz Cox Barrett

List season’s here.

Time presents the “Top Ten of Everything in 2008.” And by “Everything,” Time means 50 things. Here are 10 of the most media-centric lists:

1) Top 10 News Stories (Number one: “When We Realized The Sky Was Falling,” which was, apparently, September 13, 2008. No Iraq on the list.)

2) Top 10 Underreported Stories (First: “The Pentagon’s latest nuclear snafu.” Huh? Exactly. No Iraq here either.)

3) Top 10 Oddball News Stories” (Which I was going to re-dub “Top 10 Overreported News Stories” except that Justin’s favorite — that Footless In Vancouver story, which Justin argued was underreported— grabs third. One of my favorites — Sasquatch In A Cooler— squeaked in at nine.)
