I seem to remember Brad having concerns about doctored photos in the past... Therefore I'm sure he will join us in denouncing FOX here. :rolleyes:

Fox News has sunk to a new low. On Wednesday, the network displayed photos that its editors had doctored of two New York Times employees--reporter Jacques Steinberg, and editor Steven Radcliffe. Media Matters has graciously provided us with the before-and-after evidence showing that Fox purposefully yellowed Steinberg's teeth, widened his nose and chin, and photo-shopped his ears stick out further.
Pictures are shown on the site.

*shifty eyes* I do that all the time to some of my "favorite" clients ... does that make me a Faux News supporter? *gasps*
*washes brain out with bleach*
Seriously, they are beneath contempt by doing crap like that and I'm very sure this isn't the first time they've doctored up videos or photos. Journalism is a dirty word to the idjits at Faux ...

Geez, the second picture looks like a mentally-disabled man!
I guess that's what looks familiar to the people at Fox.

look this was probably done by one person, he should be talked to and disciplined. But it does not necessarily mean that it was an act approved of by those in power.

Right, because this is just a one-time incident for Fox. They've never done anything before on-air that would lead any of us to believe that there's a pattern here...

It was done by a graphic designer, cleared by a producer, presented by the hosts, highlighted by a director who created the camera closeups and kept the images on screen for a lengthy period of time. It was then seen by all of the executives at Fox, who have all essentially condoned it by not criticizing it.

By the way, "Fox News" is an oxymoron.
