"Why can't they just photograph conservatives straight?!" blasted this week's TIME magazine covergirl Ann Coulter.
The bestselling author and controversialist slammed magazine editors for fronting a photo of her, she claims, which is so distorted "my own mother would not even recognize me!"
The photographer, Platon, appears to have used a wide "Fisheye" lense for the cover snap, stretching Coulter's legs and feet -- while shrinking the rest of her body.

To whine about it after the fact either makes her look incredibly stupid or like she is just miling it for more than it is worth.
Frankly, I never saw anything about her that so many guys go gaga over. The chick has no shape whatsoever.
Cover Picture=What did you expect from a SLIME TABLOID.
Might have been a voyuer photographer doing upskirt photo's before getting hired by Esquire.
Um, it's just a picture. She's in a form of entertainment and she's a talking head. Sheesh. Perhaps some are blowing it a bit out of proportion? Has anyone actually read the article or are we all going to focus on how the cover of the magazine looks?
She looks like Tom Petty in this picture. That's unacceptable!
There is a Life magazine picture of Oliver North from the Iran-Contra hearing days that I always thought was cool. It's him from about mid-chest up, head held high and it looks like a storm is rolling in behind him.
Then I read why the photographer chose to photograph him that way- because he wanted to make Col. North look like a Nazi propoganda poster from WWII. Stupid lefties.
I would never put my toes into something that ugly!
They have to make any feet look bigger, simply by
design. Imagine the torture that must be inflicted
on innocent feet.
The irony being that there are a few men on this site who'd like to give Ann Coulter the Clinton treatment.
hillary would not let her borr hers ?

What pardon Her ?
I don't see anything wrong with the picture other than I think they could have used warmer lighting.
Don't worry about it. Would you expect the outside to be less distorted than the inside?
Oh my. How retouched is that first one?? She wishes she looked like that cover.
Poor Anne. But of course we have to be understanding of Time mag.
They bought that special lens just to make Bubba's private parts look bigger than all the rest of him for his photo.
No doubt having invested in that lens they just have to use it more than once.
Now they only question is--what will they enlarge with it when they photograph Hillary.
I agree.
We know you're a hottie, Ann. Screw the lefties who think or say otherwise.
She's wearing pantyhose.
