Casey Anthony a candidate for Time’s Person of the Year
Time magazine has listed candidates for Person of the Year.
The No. 4 candidate out of more than 30: Casey Anthony.
Yep, you read that right.
In July, Anthony was acquitted of murder in the 2008 death of her daughter, Caylee. “It was the first great trial of the social-media age,” writes John Cloud of Time.
Why does Anthony rate a mention for Person of the Year? Let’s go to the Time website:
“While Anthony has disappeared from tabloids for now, and we may never know what happened to Caylee, the sensational event forced us to take a close look at some difficult issues, from the role of the press in our justice system to the way female defendants are viewed.”
Readers can go to the Time website and vote on the Person of the Year candidates. Others on the list include Arab Youth Protesters, Rep. Michele Bachmann, Warren Buffett, Herman Cain, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, the late Steve Jobs, Kim Kardashian, Kate Middleton, Rupert Murdoch, President Barack Obama, former Gov. Mitt Romney and Charlie Sheen.
The early favorite: The 99 Percent protesters. Anthony comes in No. 7 in voting, ahead of Giffords and Buffett. But Time’s editors will make the final decision. The Person of the Year is named in the Dec. 26 issue, which hits newsstands on Dec. 16.

Who Should Be TIME's Person of the Year 2011?--Time
For weeks during the sticky summer doldrums, the nation was captivated by a murder trial in central Florida. Casey Anthony, a young, attractive mother, was accused of perhaps the most horrific of crimes, smothering her 2-year-old daughter Caylee to death and dumping her body in the woods. In the end, the case did not stand up under the burden of proof needed to convict Anthony. There was indeed reasonable doubt — prosecutors couldn't prove how Caylee died — and Anthony was set free after months of intense media and Internet speculation about everything from her sexual proclivities to her relationship with her father. TIME's John Cloud called it the first great trial of the social-media age. While Anthony has disappeared from tabloids for now, and we may never know what happened to Caylee, the sensational event forced us to take a close look at some difficult issues, from the role of the press in our justice system to the way female defendants are viewed. It's an ongoing discussion that goes far beyond one woman's innocence or guilt.
