Why not Donnelly for Person of the Year?

The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 48-year-old television host, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.

“What makes Donnelly so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the television host have already been named ‘English Of The Year’ by some major English newspapers and even ‘Newcastle Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Newcastle (Declan Donnelly's hometown).

Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year

A representative for the television host was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:

“Declan Donnelly Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 26 Apr 2024
“Congrats! Declan has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 26 Apr 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Declan Donnelly?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 26 Apr 2024

Could 2024 officially be the Year of Declan Donnelly?

Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2024 Person of the Year.
