MSM "AIR BRUSHING" out Mexican flags from protest demos

Posted on 04/06/2006 2:19:40 PM PDT by ellawrence

Just heard G Gordon Liddy on Fox News with John Gibson state that MSM has been "Air Brushing" Mexican flag from news photos.

Does anyone know if this is factual and why aren't Republicans seizing on this as another example of outrageous bias of MSM? I'll answer my own question: BECAUSE THEY ARE BRAIN DEAD!

Because this is standard operating procedure by our "objective" news media. Why would anyone find this shocking? I'd be shocked if the news media simply reported the facts.

Old Guard communist trick to doctor photos.

And it wouldn't be the first time the media has edited digital images. Notably the LA Times got caught running a photo composite without identifying it as such.

I heard him say that too but he offered no other information about it. I never watch the MSM so I wouldn't know if he's right or not.

I don't consider Liddy a liar. If he says it, it's true. No doubt he has seen broadcasts with the same pictures...one showing the flags and the other airbrushed out.

In that case, let's see 'em. I think I'm going to wait a while before I get too excited about this.

Yes. I wouldn't put it past the DBM to pull a stunt like this, but I sure would like to see some proof before I go full tilt.

I did a FR Special Report on this at the start of the protests. CBS Manipulates Images of Immigration Protest Hopefully they have not hid the evidence yet.

But on Fox News this a.m. they showed a room packed with Senators bragging about the amnesty they are about to pass for those illegals who are just dying to be American citizens. Surely these anxious people dying to be Americans would not wave a Mexican flag around.

I called Senator Cornyn's office to ask him how this could be, but he is not taking calls. It use to upset me that they cut off their emails, now they cut off their phones until their dirty deeds are done. Pretty soon they will be governing from the safety of France I suppose.

Putting lipstick on this illegal alien pig is not going to make it look any better........they all showed their true colors during the original protests despite what their "image consultants" are now telling them.

We should all be demanding town meetings by Senators and HOR's so that they can get an earful up close and personal.

Demonstrators yell slogans supporting a massive march through the streets of downtown Los Angeles.
