In the May 2012 publication of Time magazine, the editors devoted a special double issue to the 100 individuals they presently considered to be the most influential in society.
The managing editor, Richard Stengel, opened the issue with a commentary. He noted that the word influence, "originates from the medieval idea that a magical liquid emanates from the stars to influence our actions on earth." He stated that today influence comes "from the magical ability of technology and social media to overcome time and distance and reorder our perceptions."
