Fed up!
Oh, Jesus Christ! What a bunch of freaks. Yep, they definatly are full of “Hot Air.” They definately spew enough of it!

You just don’t get it. Cartoons can do anything – make themselves fat, slim, taller. What do you have to see, her legs spin in place?
If I were a major news network, I would be negotiating with Cronkite for digital rights to use an artificial representation of him. It would easily be worth $100M.

This picture is just a distraction from the Ned Lamont primary win.

Next week Michelle will begin her Campaign to Save Christian Kidneys!
Seriously, you’ve gotta read this one.

For those slow on the uptake, the above article, while hilarious, is satire.

So the Hot Air post is satire. Still….
Who cares?

Yeah, but DaveBo, Michelle linked her article on how dishonest leftists are about their Code Pink hunger strikes to the actual Hot Air piece. Now *that’s* pure satire.

You just don’t get it, do you, John? The potential Photoshopping of a picture of Katie Couric is just another way for the terrorists to destroy America. You laugh about it because you want the terrorists to win.

The story within the story.
What’s more interesting (to me, at least) is that while HotAir is going through a fact-checking is it/isn’t it exercise, I found the direct explanation from CBS by simply clicking back through the link cited by HotAir, which went to StickyNotes, which went to TVNewser, which had the confirmation that the image was photoshopped by Watch magazine, which, per the link at TVNewser, is owned by CBS
So there’s no question that the image was altered.
Which then triggers my ‘Okay, so what?’ response. I don’t particularly care that CBS is making their people look better through digital manipulation in their advertising.
I’m a bit surprised that the question of whether the image was or wasn’t photoshopped lingered for so long.

This is clearly proof that Bill Clinton was responsible for 9/11!

Never trust a fat chick. I want my 3 day old breaking news stories about missing White Girls delivered by somebody I can trust. Somebody with *gravitas*.

What does this have to do with Cindy Sheehan?
Ryan S.
Off topic, but I found this kind of amusing. I’m sure we’ll all hear about this for awhile.

Good stuff at Talking Points Memo and Garrison Keillor.
