Now, the true hilarity here is not JUST the Fox anchor who almost can't speak she's so offended by what this photog did, it's the fact that back in July Fox news altered the photos it aired of NY Times reporters who reported on Fox News trends. It took PR shots of the reporters and added yellow teeth, beard stubble, shadow under their eyes and put their hairlines further back than they are.

Here's THAT link.

Fox ignored complaints about this journalistic crime, but has now suddenly developed moral outrage when someone else did the same thing.


Atlantic Monthly Editor to Offer Apology to McCain for Photog’s Doctored Pics

The editor of The Atlantic Monthly said Monday he is sending a letter of apology to John McCain after a woman the magazine hired to photograph the Republican presidential nominee posted manipulated pictures from the photo shoot on her Web site.

Photographer Jill Greenberg, who is vehemently anti-Republican and expressed glee that the photos would stir up conservative ire, took pictures of McCain for the cover of The Atlantic’s October issue.

During the shoot, she took several other backlit pictures, which she then doctored and posted to her site. In one photo, she added blood oozing from McCain’s shark-toothed mouth and labeled it with the caption “I am a bloodthirsty warmongerer.” In another, a caption over McCain’s head says, “I will have my girl kill Roe v. Wade,” an obvious reference to his running mate Sarah Palin’s anti-abortion positions.

Editor James Bennet said Greenberg behaved improperly and will not be paid for the session. He said the magazine is also considering a lawsuit.

“She has violated the terms of our agreement with her, of our contract with her so we’re taking steps. So we’re looking into what steps we can see to do something about that,” Bennet told FOX News, adding that he is “already drafting a letter of apology” to McCain.

“I mean this photographer went in there under our auspices to take a cover shot for us … but while she was there she behaved in an incredibly underhanded and unprofessional way,” he said.

Apologies for a mistake here. That should not be "EDITOR" in the link, but "ANCHOR," as in "CHECK OUT THIS HILARIOUS FOX ANCHOR Outraged, OUTRAGED AT WHAT HAPPENED"

As a graphic artist, allow me to categorically say, "Whoever their Photoshop Editor is over at Faux News... SUCKS."

Ideally, when you doctor a photo in the computer, you want it to be UNDETECTABLE.

Ease up on the Smudge tool, bro.....

Why do I suspect that FOX has a larger, industrial version of the "Smudge Tool" that that available to virtually any other individual or business user on earth? I'll bet their Smudge Tool is a weaponized version of that used by others.
