Årets man hos FPM
1 januari 2007 utnämnde FrontPage Magazine Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean till dess 2006 "Årets person 2006". De två agenterna från United States Border Patrol sköt en narkotikasmugglare Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila i skinkan nära den amerikansk-mexikanska gränsen och dömdes för attack med alvarlig kroppsskada, attack med dödligt vapen, avlossande av eldvapen i samband med våldsbrott, brott mot de medborgerliga rättigheter hos en illegal invandrare, och blockering av rättvisan "för att inte ha rapporterat avlossat vapen". De hade dömts till respektive 11 år och 1 dag och 12 års fängelse, och spärrades därefter in. FrontPage Magazine considered them guilty only of "bureaucratic infractions"; "these men have lost their money, their reputations, and (perhaps soon) their freedom trying to protect our nation. For that, they deserve our thanks."

FPM's 2004 "Man of the Year" was John O'Neil, the head of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

FPM's 2003 "Man of the Year" was Colonel Allen B. West, former commander of the 2nd Battalion, 20th Field Artillery Regiment, 4th Infantry Division, who had been punished with a $5,000 fine and allowed to retire in grade as a lieutenant colonel after being charged with mistreatment of an Iraqi prisoner. The magazine said that West "did what was necessary to keep the troops committed to his charge from becoming the latest headline detailing the Fedayeen's postwar sabotage".
