Time (magazine)

===21st century===
In 2000, ''Time'' became part of [[WarnerMedia#AOL Time Warner (2001–2003)|AOL Time Warner]], which reverted to the name Time Warner in 2003.

In 2007, ''Time'' moved from a Monday subscription/newsstand delivery to a schedule where the magazine goes on sale Fridays and is delivered to subscribers on Saturday.<!--dead link<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/fn/4123937.html|title=Chron.com}}</ref>--> The magazine was published on Fridays when it began in 1923.

In early 2007, the year's first issue was delayed roughly a week due to "editorial changes", including the layoff of 49 employees.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://gawker.com/229978/time-inc-layoffs-surveying-the-wreckage|title=Time Inc.

In 2009, Time announced it was introducing ''Mine'', a personalized print magazine mixing content from various Time Warner publications based on the reader's preferences. The new magazine was met with a poor reception, with criticism that its focus needed to be more broad to be truly personal.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://platform.idiomag.com/2009/04/times-foray-into-personalized-publishing-time-mine/| title=Time's foray into personalized publishing: Time Mine | access-date=December 15, 2007| date=April 27, 2009| url-status=dead| website=[[idio]]| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090430001058/http://platform.idiomag.com/2009/04/times-foray-into-personalized-publishing-time-mine/| archive-date=April 30, 2009}}</ref>

The magazine has an online archive with the unformatted text for every article published. The articles were indexed and converted from scanned images using [[optical character recognition]] technology. The minor errors in the text are remnants of the conversion to the digital format.

In January 2013, Time Inc. announced that it would cut nearly 500 jobs – roughly 6% of its 8,000 staff worldwide.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424127887324610504578273830154238010 |url-access=subscription |first1=Keach |last1=Hagey |first2=Jeffrey |last2=Trachtenberg |title=Time Inc.

In 2017, editor and journalist [[Catherine Mayer]], who also founded the [[Women's Equality Party]] in the UK, sued ''Time'' through attorney [[Ann Olivarius]] for sex and age discrimination.<ref>{{cite news |last=Graham-Harrison |first=Emma |date=August 5, 2017 |url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/aug/05/catherine-mayer-time-magazine-sex-discrimination-lawsuit |title=Top journalist sues Time magazine for 'sex and age discrimination' |newspaper=The Guardian |location=London |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200809115458/https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/aug/05/catherine-mayer-time-magazine-sex-discrimination-lawsuit |archive-date=August 9, 2020}}</ref><ref>''Mayer v.

In March 2018, only six weeks after the closure of the sale, Meredith announced that it would explore the sale of ''Time'' and sister magazines ''[[Fortune (magazine)|Fortune]]'', ''[[Money (magazine)|Money]]'' and ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'', since they did not align with the company's lifestyle brands.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://variety.com/2018/biz/news/meredith-layoffs-1200-time-inc-magazine-sale-time-si-fortune-money-1202732892/| title=Meredith Laying Off 1,200, Will Explore Sale of Time, SI, Fortune and Money Brands| last=Spangler| first=Todd| date=March 21, 2018| magazine=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]| access-date=March 22, 2018| language=en-US| archive-date=July 27, 2020| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200727010610/https://variety.com/2018/biz/news/meredith-layoffs-1200-time-inc-magazine-sale-time-si-fortune-money-1202732892/| url-status=live}}</ref>

In October 2018, Meredith Corporation sold ''Time'' to [[Marc Benioff]] and his wife Lynne for $190&nbsp;million. Although Benioff is the chairman and co-CEO of [[Salesforce.com]], ''Time'' was to remain separate from that company, and Benioff would not be involved in the magazine's daily operations.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://techcrunch.com/2018/09/16/marc-and-lynne-benioff-will-buy-times-magazine-from-meredith-for-190m/ |title=Marc and Lynne Benioff was to buy ''Time'' from Meredith for $190M |work=[[TechCrunch]] |date=September 17, 2018 |last=Shu |first=Catherine |access-date=September 17, 2018 |archive-date=September 17, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180917101605/https://techcrunch.com/2018/09/16/marc-and-lynne-benioff-will-buy-times-magazine-from-meredith-for-190m/ |url-status=live}}.</ref><ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.thewrap.com/time-magazine-staffs-up-under-new-ownership/| title=Time Magazine Staffs Up Under New Ownership| website=[[TheWrap]]| first=Jon| last=Levine| date=December 14, 2018| access-date=June 7, 2019| archive-date=June 7, 2019| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190607071357/https://www.thewrap.com/time-magazine-staffs-up-under-new-ownership/| url-status=live}}</ref>
