As we noted yesterday when news broke about Time Magazine’s cover story on Glenn Beck, the image used is from a photo shoot last year by Jill Greenberg.
It’s an interesting choice. Greenberg is known for her liberal views – and she’s being very upfront about her use of this opportunity to take revenge on those who attacked her.
Greenberg brought up the cover on Twitter (she goes by the ironic handle @JillManipulator). Here’s her comment:
exactly a year after my right wing attack, i am retouching one of my attackers for a magazine cover. leaving blemishes of course.
Time may not have known Greenberg’s intent here, but this is a very blatant admittance on her part that she’s purposely making Beck look bad. And although Time may not have known that, they had to have known her background.
She’s the same photographer who took purposely awful pictures of Sen. John McCain during the campaign, and then photoshopped them on her own site to make him look even worse. The Atlantic said they wouldn’t pay her for her work because she “went beyond the parameters of her contract.”

Its all just fringe media flatulence.
>>Really? He looks like a mental patient.<<
I worked with mental patients. Trust me, they don’t look like that.
He looks childish, maybe. I like it. My wallpaper on my computer was my DH doing the same thing. I think it’s cute.
NOT GUILTY!!
I don’t know which itch you’re talking about but it must have taken some photoshopping talent to make her look good.
I think Glenn looks just perfect!
>>What do mental patients look like ?<<
Most are either vacant or ready to kill you.
At least the ones I know.
Beck looks like he’s about to take all the kids for Ice Cream!
yeah, i don’t get it ~ the pic looks fine.
i think it captures his whole tude. truth be told, I don’t even like his schtick.
though he does seem to piss off the right people, so good for him.
I am not good at the html thing, but here is a picture of Greenberg.
I note she tried to make Beck look bad, whereas she’s just....well, GUILTY

I agree it looks good. It looks as if he's enjoying himself—having fun making fun of TIME and the dinosaur media.
I think the artist in her is working against the nihilist ideologue. Blemishes? Not that I can see. Maybe she kinda likes him.
Time might not have known?
Oh, sure. Just an ordinary photo portrait. Nothing to see. Nothing to notice.
But I agree. This backfires on them.
A mad but BRILLIANT man.
WOOF!
That’s a man, Baby!
The picture’s great, whatever the moonbat’s attempt.
They should have had the largest crowd of patriots ever to have gathered in the nation’s capital on this week’s cover, but nooooooo...the Leftist couldn’t bring themselves to admit that.
Conservatives should never buy this shrinking rag anyway.
MY EYES....MY EYES!!!!!!!!! NOOOO.
