Photog Says She Purposely Made Glenn Beck Look Bad On Time Cover
Mediaite ^ | September 18, 2009 | Steve Krakauer

Posted on 09/18/2009 12:03:58 PM PDT by rightwingintelligentsia

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.”

What a twit. She thinks that by trying to make Glen look bad on a cover of a magazine, will some how diminish him.

Hey Jill it's the cover of Time, I guessing not too many Glen Beck listeners read this rag. And the ones that do won't stop listening because of some picture; they're not superficial libtards like you. But I'm guessing you feeeel good about yourself for this; must help you cope with knowing your a Liberal loser.

All things considered, it could have been worse.

Time could have posted this picture on its cover:

This is the same photographer who “made McCain look bad” on a magazine cover last year, remember?

Maybe we can reach a point where people in general understand leftists are unprofessional and vicious.

Why do any conservatives even cooperate with these hacks? All they do is help sell their liberal rags.

Yeah, I canceled my subscription of 20 years to Time when the Luce family sold it to Warner.

Really? He looks like a mental patient.

Mind if I ask you how Obama's pics look to you?

I think he looks handsome and funny with the tongue out.

He’s doing exactly what I would like to do if I had the cover of Time.

Egad. She looks like she comes with a set of whips and a chain saw.

No wonder she has so many pictures of crybabies, it’s like looking in the mirror for her.

Yeah, I think it’s a cool pic. It reminds me of the one Newsweek used not long ago of Rush Limbaugh, where he looks just incredibly sinister. Apparently Rush loved it!
