NY Times Crops George and Laura Bush Out of Front-Page Photo of Selma Anniversary
Newsbusters ^ | March 8, 2015 | Tim Graham

Posted on 03/08/2015 10:41:36 PM PDT by grundle

MRC's Dan Gainor alerted us that Ben Smith of the Daily Signal tweeted out a shocking visual: the New York Times front page on Sunday cropped George W. and Laura Bush out of its photo of a Selma anniversary march. They cropped it just to include President Obama. (Notice the Bushes didn't try to crowd right next to the president to get into the frame.)

And a fuller shot:

The online story by Peter Baker and Richard Fausset doesn't have column-inch limitations, but its photo, too, excludes the Bushes.

That is pretty darned disgusting.

Our media is completely, on the side of liberalism.

100%.

From the looks of the photo, they actually had panned the photo to the left to include several irrelevant people as cropping photo to eliminate including the Bushes without having Obama appear at the extreme edge of the picture

Didn't Stalin do that to photos, too?

The only white guy in the picture is the Secret Service guy. He stands out pretty good.

what are the Kenyans doing in that photo ???

None of them or their family walked across that bridge with Dr Martin Luther King 50 years ago...

The illegitimate son of the white girl Stanley Ann Dunham was living in Indonesia with his baby Momma...

Indeed. They see their responsibility as to protect and serve the Obamas - if we don’t print it, it didn’t happen.

It was of cosmic importance to include Sasha and Malia in the shot, but not the previous (Republican) President. Because the Obama family is evidence that racism is nearly extinct, or that racism is endemic, or civil rights, or hate, or justice or something.
