August 30, 2006 -- Talk about a miracle diet - Katie Couric has become the Incredible Shrinking Anchorwoman. Thanks to a computer "slight" of hand, the Tiffany network has made the new face of "CBS Evening News" instantly drop about 20 pounds.
In a picture widely distributed to the media last month, a normal-looking Couric wore a frumpy light gray suit and her trademark smile.
But thanks to Photoshop, the popular editing software, the same photo, printed in a CBS magazine, shows her looking much, much thinner - and her suit has become a few shades darker.

By the way, the photo in post 20 is a Reuters pic, looks like someone was sleeping on the job.

Dumb move on CBS's part, especially after the Reuters/AP faked photos furor.
Now, this alteration is going to get more Internet coverage than Couric's actual opening as CBS's newsreader.
It would actually seem to be a negative for the new newsreader.

Imagine if they had left the substantial bosom on the insubstantial Katie. She'd be well set up for her next career after her anchor-gig drags.

Maybe they let the air out of her head and that's how come she looks thinner.

They are just honing their skills for the great Hillary run of 08. They are going to be in demand then. There will be much photo editing and airbrushing then. Lots of airbrushing. Lots.

Her neck has been narrowed as well. And the whole pic has been slightly compressed horizontally.

They retailored the suit, too. Check the right shoulder for one clear example.

It would not take the whole 12-pack to get me to doink her, just as long as it didn't involve any conversation.

Personally, I think all this fuss about CBS photoshopping Katie Couric is just a bunch of nonsense...

I agree. It is really good work.
However like the rest of the news, Couric is misrepresenting herself. She cannot even make a truthful appearance.
To: The G Man
But the deceivingly wicked icicle smile isn't Photo-shopped? I reckon there's nothing any computer technology can do to hide / touch up Liberal Elitist Delusional Self Centeredness?
