Article in the New York Times about Fox News and how they photoshopped pictures of Times reporters.





Oh my Lord. Ew, just--ew. Yellow teeth? Dark circles? Why don't you just draw mustaches on their faces and joints in their mouths? Grow up. The Times column goes even further and calls it (in the case of Steinberg) anti-Semitic. Look at his nose--kind of reminds you of this:

The Steinberg one definitely looks like an anti-semitic caricature. The thing is, the photo-manipulation is so obvious that I wonder how they thought they could get away with it. I guess they were assuming that no one would be paying close attention, and that it would just sort of register on an unconscious level.

Either that or to maintain plausible deniability. "It was a joke, man!"

I'm disgusted.
As a journalist, I am disgusted.
These are supposed to be legitimate newscasters and news staff and they have nothing better to do than to draw on people's faces to scare little privileged children?
"The Jewish reporters eat their babies! Run! Run from the ethnicity and opposing views!!"
Idiots!!

What a bunch of schmucks.

There really should be repercussions when any news org. lies and outright falsifies. And THIS looks actionable to me. The intent to smear is crystal clear.
Remember all that "Red Scare" business? This is it. It's here now, just not communist so much, and it's real and it's media arm is Fox News.
And THAT oughtta be obvious to more people.
