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.”

As I recall, Glenn actually held up a touched up Time mag cover of the second pic (above) that would have been more appropriate for them to have done rather than the rant photo of himself. I think it was on yesterday’s show.
USA Today just called and asked if I was going to re-up my subscription - I said "no thanks" and the woman asked, "why". I told her there was a Protest March in Washington and USA Today gave it almost no coverage. She said, " I listen to NPR and I haven't heard of a March on Washington"...
And I said, "that's my point - and if you only print for liberals, don't expect me to support your paper..." And so, one down... I suspect I'll keep the WSJ... we'll see.
Editor:
As long as the attorney general ignores allegations and convictions of corruption in nationwide organizations which take tens of millions in federal funds, the president appoints communists and radicals to key positions, and the congress is corrupt and ineffectual, people like Glen Beck will emerge to fill a void which needs to be filled.
Dude looks like a lady....
I think it’s a great picture but that won’t entice me to purchase the magazine.

Obnoxous little twerp. Who pi**ed in your corn flakes?
