Is this type of manipulated crap that irks me.

Anyone have an email address for this so-called photographer?

If anything, it makes the AP look bad (worse), not Bush.

Man, I was "feeling" good because I read two articles where liberal reporters actually got the fact that bias is bad...guess that'll teach me to act like a liberal, and worry about my "feelings".

Any "real" photographer would toss this shot. This is obviously someone with an axe to grind. "Oh, look what I did! Bush has Mickey Mouse ears! Aren't I clever?"
Ummmmm.......NO, just juvenile.

Their attempt flops as the face is the genuine article.

Gives more a halo effect than mouse ears.

So he is tired. So what. At least he is not all fluffed up with botox like Hanoi John the French fagboy. Dubya by ten points - you heard it here first.

Oldest photography trick in the book. If we make a big deal out of it, we'll look foolish.

The AP is carrying water for Kerry and the DNC. We all know that by now. Earlier in the day, ultra-liberal Jennifer Loven wrote a hit piece against Bush saying that "Bush twisted Kerry's words" and ignored Kerry's lies. CBS, Rather, Loven, AP, they all are albatrosses on Kerry's neck.

Is it AP or Reuters?

I just fired off a complaint to AP about their blatant Kerry bias and printing opinion as news.

Not to be picky but it appears to have been a Reuters photographer, not an AP one.

Registered, sweetie, this is the worst the media can manipulate. Think of all the photos that kerry has approved.

kerry can't BUY a good photo, even with all of terezzzzzza's money. AP finally manipulated a silly one.

Not even close. Bush in a landslide!

You and everybody here dang well knows...that if that type pic was posted here of John Heinz Kerry...it would have been photoshopped.

For some editor to let this go through...is just blatant bias. No doubt about it...

The leftist's in the media don't even try to be clever anymore.

A pox on all of them...!!

I've been a photographer. These things happen. BUT - the photo editor knew exactly what he was doing when he let this out over the wire.
