According to a reliable source, Greg Daniels is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2024. But while the producer's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

UPDATE 22/11/2024 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Why not Daniels 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 61-year-old producer, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.

“What makes Daniels 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 producer have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘West Hollywood Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in West Hollywood (Greg Daniels' hometown).

Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year

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

“Greg Daniels Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 21 Nov 2024
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveGreg”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 21 Nov 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Greg Daniels?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 21 Nov 2024

Could 2024 officially be the Year of Greg Daniels?

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

Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2024?
