FoxNews Seems to Color-Filter Trump to Make Him Look Like His Head Is Soaked in Coppertone
Freep | 05/27/2016 | Charles O'Connell

TVs once had problems with excessive "color" (color-volume, vs. purple or green "hue), but mine doesn't. It's a new wide-screen tv that has perfect color all the time--except when I'm viewing Donald Trump on FoxNews. In which case he looks like he's been soaking his head in coppertone. The artificial "tanning" cosmetic, over-use of which causes a lurid orange color to appear on the skin.

I only realized this is happening when I saw a picture of Trump on another news site. I was actually surprised that he looks normal! I had assumed there was some problem with his makeup. But looking at the picture, I realized that he is perfectly normal looking. Except on FoxNews.

I don't give a rat's fat fanny about Trump or Clinton. I did stop watching FoxNews once their barbie bimbo started trying to jimmy the news. I'm sorry that my opinion of Charles Krauthhammer has been lowered by listening to him really speak. Superboy should start taking himself less seriously.

Foxnews lost this viewer with their anti-Trump bias.

Their call—let them crash and burn like MSNBC.

Actually, It’s ‘Cheetos’ coloring. It takes special bowls of Cheetos to get the correct blend.

The issue isn’t a filter. If unnatural colors occur, it is more likely that the cameras are not white balanced correctly.

White balance is the process of designating color spectrum tones. There is a significant difference in light color between sunlight and studio light— and everything in between. Setting the colorBalance to a white card or grey card ensures that the range of colors is properly displayed.

News studios are not white balanced nearly often enough.

It is not a conspiracy. It is laziness.

Trump said that Fox Broadcasting made him look especially bad, during the recent not-so-famous interview he had with Ms. Kelly. He did not look great from where he sat, and she looked her usual overly molded self.

Perhaps this is of help to them when comparing oranges to apples. TRiUMPh

is not just another apple who fell not far from the tree.

I was in Europe when George W Bush was in office. He was always tinted red on television news there when I saw him.
