Thanks for the pic - this was caught by another poster above and believed to be gloves; but this is even WEIRDER. I don't believe it's photoshopped, too much detail for such a thing and the original on CBS web site shows the same thing - darkened hands.

In the Obama portrait revealed today, his hands look similarly weird - big though, of course, with ring high profile.

Did you download the photo and lighten it?

It appears to be the hand of a black man.

Also, if you look at the area from the wrist down, you'll see the sleeve sticks out.

As I said, the shoulder down looks like a straight cut and then at the bottom it appears to stick out at the wrist.

In any event, the skin tone of the hand (which looks like the skin tone of a black man), even accounting for the shadow, is dramatically different from the skin tone of Podestas' face.
