Are any reliable sources reporting the alleged CNN altering of the Oregon killer’s photo?
Seriously?
This doesn't pass the smell test. The only sources reporting this story, thus far, are fringe sites.
Thread: CNN Alters Photo of Umpqua Killer Chris Harper-Mercer to Make Him Look White
Look at the pics, and decide who you’re going to believe: trustworthy, responsible, unbiased CNN, or your own lying eyes?
It seems to me that a lot of these crazies do it to become “famous”. Rather than publishing (altering?) their photos and releasing their names, how about the MSM not releasing a name or photograph. Also, how ‘bout doing away with “gun free” zones, since that’s where these cowards go to do their murders. I just wonder how many crimes have been avoided because the area allowed conceal and carry (CC). Indeed, I’d make the entire US a CC zone. Perhaps the idiots would think twice if they knew they might not even get one shot off.
How do you know it was really from CNN? Have you found the original CNN link with the photo?
No source it ever came from CNN. They did show a version of the pic that had more brightness aded that some other sources, but not the “white guy” version.
BTW they did this to pics of 0bama when he was running in 08. His pics showed him having VERY light skin tones.
I did an image match search using the image file as posting the conservative treehouse website and found no references matching to anything on CNN
there were a few matches but none from ANY news :organizations..foreign nor domestic.
That being said,,,I think that CNN could afford to have hired someone with just a bit more SKILL to make the fraudulent image.
Fringe sites that don’t even have any video. Doesn’t pass the smell test.
You are obviously missing the point. The fact that someone altered the photo is not in dispute. The fact that CNN WOULD do it is not in dispute. What IS in dispute is whether or not it was CNN. As I pointed out in another post, this would not be the first time someone on the right has made a photoshop of someone and tried to say it was the real deal.
So the question is: IS THERE ANY PROOF THIS WAS CNN?
CNN COULD HAVE AFFORDED to have hired the same guy who Blackified OJAY...instead of some kid who likely “lives” in his mom’s basement
its a real amateur hack job.
the whole news media would be all over it!!!
And the guy who killed Trayvon Martin was deliberately altered in the images to look more white, as well as the logo put over his head in video so the bloody wound on it wasn’t visible.
I saw something on fox news about it...Megan Kelly maybe, I was working on my friend’s car and not really paying attention to the tv. You have to decide if Megyn is reliable.
I think Megyn Kelly is reliable.
YES.
That is their baldfaced MO.
Reliable for what?
apparently it was broadcast, so we need video proof
I’m not sure how much it matters. I showed the Conservative Treehouse post to my wife, who gets all her news from CNN or BBC. She said she had not seen that picture.
BUT she was also astounded to know the guy was black or had a black mother. So the media is accomplishing its goal of making the public believe the evil perp was white. They don’t need altered pictures.
During the Bernie Goetz trial, the media plastered pictures of one of his “victims” in a cap and gown, just like they did with the gentle giant Michael Brown. A dirty little secret, Goetz’ trial was unexpectedly delayed because one of his so-called victims, James Ramseur recovered from his gunshot wounds enough to rape one of his neighbors who was 7 months pregnant at the time. He did 25 yrs and in 2011 was found dead a hotel room in the Bronx of an overdose.
That video is another internet hoax. Those fringe sites either fell for it or are continuing it on purpose.
