More disgusting DRUDGE PHOTO TOMFOOLERY...
Edited on Tue Aug-03-04 11:53 AM by UdoKier



These two photos are running side-by-side on Sludge's "website".

The grotesquely distorted pic of Kerry apparently has been Photoshopped to look as unappealing as possible. That in contrast to the pic on the right of "Bush in Action©"

How does ANYONE believe that Drudge is anything but a far-right stooge?

1. Actually, Bush looks pretty goofy, too
but I'm sure Drudge thinks the photo is flattering to Bush. :eyes:

5. A manly man!
I swear all I see is a strutting little peacock that makes me just want to skwoosh his little pinhead.

Guys, please, please, if any of you see the "manly man" here, explain. I just do not get it.

2. That photo of Kerry is on Yahoo's news. It is shown during the
slide show on politics. He is riding the ferry on Lake Michigan. It looked the same over there.

3. Photoshopped? Or just bad angle, wind, etc.?
Drudge is a moran. Now THAT's one media outlet that I don't get why ANYONE visits.

:shrug:

4. Not photoshopped
In my professional opinion, the photographer used a wide-angle lens, and shot it at belt level, from fairly close.

Drudge also links the photo directly off of a news archive.

9. It's the same as the source in this thread
Scroll up, right click, pick properties.

This thread is stealing the same bandwidth.

18. I suppose you're right...
...but it's clear that Sludge picked the must unflattering shot possible out of the slideshow. Kerry looks twisted up like a pipe cleaner. There were some very good shots in the slideshow that he chose not to use.

I despise Matt Sludge.

11. Bush looks like he's a couple taco bell gorditas
...away from an "executive accident", if you catch my drift.
