OK if everyone still has questions on why the shot with Bush is not a good shot. The photo was at least three stops overexposed in the sun. And no way they could fit that frame in layout. It has nothing to do with being liberal or conservative or wanting Bush out of the shot.

Were you taking the pics? And if so, why did you crank up the stops?

Or does cranking up the stops to "overexpose" "black out" all the White folks?

I guess next time the media should hire a French photographer ...



.. the French seem to have that "exposure" setting "thingy" down!
could you point out Bush in the pic LL.

I can see the "exposure" setting was "good"! I just don't see MIA Obaminable!

The usual response to someone who has been caught with their hand in the cookie jar is, "I won't dignify that with an answer". Even on a SHMB, it seems.

I fail to see the Problem. I have no qualms about saying that my home NewsPaper is The Houston Chronicle. You did say "my news paper".

Go here. Photos all over the place of Bush and Obama. Shaking hands, hugging, Bush having a laugh with Michelle. You guys really need to get a life.

So this goes back to the original question. The Arkansas Democrat Gazette is possibly the largest News Paper in Arkansas, and they ran a picture that DID include President Bush.

Why did the NY Times choose to crop him out? Surely their Photographers are as astute as The ADG's are.

Just shows they are part of the same club. No substantive difference. Democrats, Republicans, just two sides of the same coin.

You don't crop AP photos. You pick the one you want to use and you use it. Any cropping is done by the AP beforehand.
