Photog Says She Purposely Made Glenn Beck Look Bad On Time Cover
Mediaite ^ | September 18, 2009 | Steve Krakauer

As we noted yesterday when news broke about Time Magazine’s cover story on Glenn Beck, the image used is from a photo shoot last year by Jill Greenberg.

It’s an interesting choice. Greenberg is known for her liberal views – and she’s being very upfront about her use of this opportunity to take revenge on those who attacked her.

Greenberg brought up the cover on Twitter (she goes by the ironic handle @JillManipulator). Here’s her comment:

exactly a year after my right wing attack, i am retouching one of my attackers for a magazine cover. leaving blemishes of course.

Time may not have known Greenberg’s intent here, but this is a very blatant admittance on her part that she’s purposely making Beck look bad. And although Time may not have known that, they had to have known her background.

She’s the same photographer who took purposely awful pictures of Sen. John McCain during the campaign, and then photoshopped them on her own site to make him look even worse. The Atlantic said they wouldn’t pay her for her work because she “went beyond the parameters of her contract.”

Yep. Glenn has the total “neener, neener” look going on. Hilarious. I love it.

This woman is witch...an absolute harridan. She will purposely provoke toddlers to make them sob for her photos and not warn the parents. I will concede her use of light and texture is pretty cool but she comes across as yet another tribe gal angry at life for not looking like Bar Rafaeli or Natalie Wood. She loathes Christians. What was Beck thinking?

Might get some new fans, believe it or not some have never heard of Glen Beck.

Didn’t Beck say yesterday that this photo was from a previous photo shoot, and that the contract she signed specified that the shots could only be used for THAT shoot, and no future shoots?

Of course Manipulator Jill seems to care little for contracts, unless it benefits her. IMHO, of course.

I think the photo is funny.

Jill: REVENGE FAIL.

Yeah, her style looks familiar. She’s got this hyper-realistic PhotoShop retouching thing that she does, almost like they’re drawn instead of shot.

You can’t tell Obama is a mental patient from looking at his picture.

Why?

You can't pay for that kind of publicity. How many people of all persuasions are going to check out his show even from just seeing this picture in the grocery line?

I thought the same thing. Only good could come from it.

What a twit. She thinks that by trying to make Glen look bad on a cover of a magazine, will some how diminish him.

This is very childish. And with someone we can see every single day on TV, uselss.

"Why would Glenn want to be on the cover of Time anyway? He has much more listeners than Time has readers."

Because if what the poster in #15 says is accurate then it will open the way for a lot of people who are not familiar with Glenn Beck get exposed to him. I know a 93 yr old women who was a school teacher and is a Democrat who reads TIME. We have been trying to tell her about Glenn. I sure hope the article isn't to critical of him.

Face it, Jill, you’re just trying to cover for your bad photography.

Even if a lib woman was smoking hot, being a lib is a deal-breaker. If my leftie meter even twitches, forget it, she’s done. I’ve dealt with enough unhinged, commie-wannabe kum-by-ya leftist women in a professional capacity that I won’t consider dating one, no matter how hot she is.

How is time magazine doing subscription-wise? Do they understand that, in this case, correlation equals cause?
