World Net Daily ^ | March 20, 2022 | Joe Kovacs

As if fake news were not fake enough already, now NBC is accused of airbrushing a photograph of collegiate swimmer Lia Thomas to make the transgender athlete appear more feminine.

'I'm crying. Why did NBC Today airbrush the [bleep] out of this picture? lmaooooo," asked one Twitter user.

It's pretty damn obvious," noted a report by Twitchy.com.

"We're so old we remember the controversy over TIME magazine darkening O.J. Simpson's mug shot for its cover, eliciting accusations of racism.

Color me disappointed that they only attempted this with the face. I was anticipating how they would remove obvious male genital lumps in the swimwear with an airbrush. Guess they had to start somewhere...

Crickets from feminists who denounce air brushing and fat-shaming etc… We have become a church of appearances. There is zero cultural interest, only pathetic schizophrenic use of the church as make up. Even the Mohave had integrated the trannies to their culture by making them assume responsibility to the Mohave culture. This is the opposite, this is a flight from adult responsibility which is at the root of encouraging moronic behavior.

I already was not too fond of sports, less so of women sports, and now this? No amount of air brushing, quite the opposite, will make me watch this.

Why do people still watch this crap? Have we becomes so brain dead buying toilet paper during a made up covid crisis we lost all means of critical thinking and discernment? Is this the result of immigrating stupid people en masse? (George Washington already bemoaned the migration of German agricultural workers in the midwest because they were stupid and incapable of appreciating the constitution.

Modern feminists are handmaidens for a misogynistic Deep State.

Why would they? They never did for Michelle Obama...

There are some things you can’t cover up with lipstick and powder.

Knew a female commercial artist/photo retoucher who liked to shock folks at
cocktail parties saying she did blow jobs every day...doing airbrush work...
nailed it.

Simple test for Womens’ Swimming and US Olympic Committee:

Look in the swimmer’s pants,
If there’s “junk”, IT’S A HE.
If there’s XY chromosome, IT’S A HE.

Looks like an over enthusiastic use of Facetune, and probably the video version on the Zoom. People have eyebrows, not smears.

There are some phrases that don’t mean what they used to today: “seeing is believing” and “is the pope catholic”.
