Iconic American folk singer Bob Dylan disparaged the accuracy of the reporting in Time Magazine during a 1965 interview with the publication, in a prescient early example of the modern day “fake news” phenomenon.
Dylan, then 24, excoriated Time reporter Horace Judson for what he believes to be biased coverage, accusing the publication of projecting some greater meaning or message onto his music.
“If I want to find out anything I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines,” Dylan said. “Because they just got too much to lose by printing the truth, you know that.”
