The 'woke' Time Magazine's selection of Swedish activist Greta Thunberg as its Person of the Year for 2019, came from a company which is 'very political' and 'very left-wing,' according to Sky News host James Morrow. Credlin

The 'woke' Time Magazine's selection of Swedish activist Greta Thunberg as its Person of the Year is example of how "political" and very left win the company is, according to Sky News host James Morrow. The teenage environmentalist is the youngest youngest person selected for the honour since the tradition began in 1927.

Thunberg herself had admitted she was “surprised” by the decision. "But of course we all knew this [selection] was going to come down," Mr Morrow told Sky News host Peta Credlin. "It's not the Time Magazine that we all knew and loved and grew up with 20 [or] 30-years ago, [now] it's a much different thing". "It's a very political thing, it's very left wing, it's very woke".
