The really fascinating stuff is in the comments to the NP article.

Typical of right wing zealots - shoot the messenger. Particularly liked this one: "What is interesting is that the photo looks totally crisp on SunNews media, so the question is why was it doctored on the Natonal Post so as to appear out of focus. Perhaps there is an axe (jalousie) to grind on the part of the NP staff."

I know SUN TV aspires to be as bigoted as FOX news but this is lame stuff. FOX news was caught substituting crowd footage to make an anti-Obama protest seem bigger. Now that's how it's done!

Funny

That is a lousy job, I could do a lot better, and it's not what I get paid to do.
Another point, I wish the media would stop using the "photo shopped" phrase, how do they know which software was used?
Its not that great anyway.

Whatever... It's simply a genericized trademark, there's lots of them. I'm sure even you have used a few of them, or are you one of those guys who goes around constantly correcting people. :)

i'd fire the incompetent graphics editor... there are thousands of untrained people who can do a better job. This guy must be sitting on his ass getting paid well for nothing

But you must admit, the faked-up still photo does look more professional than their TV shows. Or have those improved since they gave up their broadcast license to go cable-only and preach to the choir alone?

Its the toronto sun - they probably walked out side chose a random street person and said do it and we'll buy you a coffee. Watch for that story soon.
if you ever meet a sun employee ask them if they support government funding for couples trying to have children... they will dodge the question or support the government nanny state payout to those poor childless couples deprived of the joys of parenthood. Why diverge from the typical conservative ideology? Because the wife of Quebecor's top honcho wants them to.

You can't understand why the media used the term "photoshopped"?

Unless you're Rob Ford, your head shouldn't be that comparatively big to those around you.

One more time, learn how to read, I never said " I don't understand why".
Just to help you out here.... the media woudn't use .......... Kleenex, it would use the word "tissue", I'm sure you know the difference, maybe not.
I'll bet Adobe just love to hear the media using that term though.
