Ann doesn't miss a beat.She put this on her own site. It's a picture of Time's picture editor, Mary Anne Golon with some equally unflattering distortion.

...by posting even MORE unflattering "distorted" images of the TIME magazine staff on this thread.
Now for your NEXT project, how about "distorting" the image of the PHOTOGRAPHER who took that dastardly image?(The cover photo of Ann was taken for TIME by a guy who calls himself "Platon.")
From www.mediabistro.com:
So What Do You Do, Platon?
The photographer behind Esquire's famous Clinton "crotch shot" on shooting celebrities, the powerful, and fashion spreads filled with real people.By Chris Gage – February 10, 2004These days, when bolder, brasher headlines spill across magazine covers in a split-second strugglbe to capture our Schadenfreude-tinted fancy, it's rare that a picture catches the public's eye the way the low-angled "crotch shot" of Bill Clinton did back in December 2000, when it appeared on the cover of Esquire. The photographer behind that notorious shot—the British-born and mono-monikered Platon—was granted only a few minutes with the then-president, in which he covered his assignment bases and then boldly asked: "Mr. President, can you show me the love?" The photograph was immediately dissected and discussed by Larry King, Bob Woodward, and a host of other media pundits and scribes. The reaction the photo received, Platon says, "said more about the media than it did about me and Clinton. It was a contemporary portrait of a contemporary president. I wasn't going to photograph him as a stuffy old guy who doesn't relate to the young people..."
I volunteer to give her part of my butt (I saw her in NY; she has NONE)
that is just too funny!
That guy thinks women might believe that tale about the relationship between the size of one's feet and...other stuff.
I assume your wife weighs about 380 Chad, and eats more in one sitting than the entire nation of Ghana! You need help pal. You're not only blind, but dumb!
That pic demonstrates this guy has some sort of perverted fixation with the lower anatomy and a desire to capture it on film...and a self portrait with exaggerated features as this is just creepy...Perhaps as Freud once said, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."
This "height fetish" seems to be Platon's standard operating procedure.
From the interview posted on www.mediabistro.com:
Some of your photographs seem more like iconic symbols of the subject than like portraits, particularly the ones of George H.W. Bush and Clinton.
It's very intimidating to be photographed, but if I kneel down and chat with you, so you're looking down at me, it makes you feel less threatened.
My father is an architect, so I often think like a designer or an architect. I remember when I was admiring buildings, I would look up at them and see this perspective and this awesome power of the monument in front of me.
I guess it's natural to see these icons in the same way, the architecture of people...
Thank you Mr. Blackwell............what a treat to have a fashion expert like yourself saving us all from making a serious fashion faux pas!
The picture makes her look tall and too skinny. In real life she's tall and too skinny.
What's the problem?
I personally dont like women that skinny. Other than that she looks fine.
If only TIME could be honest.
LMAO! There is a Classic,How Dare You Not Ping me!
Looks like he wears john madden's shoes
"Time magazine being unfair to a conservative?
Ann is too bright to be surprised at that."
You would think so. But even some conservative writers get off on being all "chummy-chum-chum" with the "insiders."
Laura Ingraham is one of the greatest radio commentators around IMHO, but she looooves to drop names...names like Chris Matthews, Bill O'Reilly, etc. etc. and show how "connected" she is.
Hannity does this too.
While on one hand they like to say they are just one of us commoners, they like to point out that they are part of an inner circle that we don't belong to.
For Ann Coulter to act surprised when the rabid dog bites her hand, elicits little sympathy from me.
Some of your photographs seem more like iconic symbols of the subject than like portraits, particularly the ones of George H.W. Bush and Clinton.Ann is apparently in rather good company, having her image distorted for the cover on a magazine. :o)
Here is ANOTHER example of Platon's "trademaked" distortions, from www.texasmonthly.com:...Platon, who photographed the former president for the cover, discusses portraiture and creating the perfect image...
