Conservative Firing Line ^ | 10/19/2017 | Joe Newby

Posted on 10/19/2017 3:39:49 PM PDT by ForYourChildren

On Monday, the Wapakoneta Daily News in Ohio published a photo of President Trump that had been edited to give the president what can only be seen as a “Hitler-style” mustache, angering a number of people.

The paper later apologized, claiming that it “would never intentionally” insult the president. According to the apology, the edit was characterized as “sloppy.”

“The Wapakoneta Daily News regrets the image of President Donald Trump published on Page 1A of Monday’s newspaper,” Deb Zweb wrote.

Zweb added:

"While we edit photos on a daily basis, this particular photo was edited in a sloppy manner to make it appear the president had a mustache."

"The Wapakoneta Daily News would never intentionally insult our president in any manner."

"It was an unfortunate incident which we continue to investigate and we offer our apologies to our readers."

Shave and a hair-cut, 2 bits.

Most papers need to be driven out of business.

That’s not sloppy editing.

That is intentional.

Squared on three sides and round on the area meeting the upper lip....

What is up with that crappy copy anyway. It looks 1970’s-ish....

The immaturity of Leftists is really embarrassing. I hope the Wapak newspaper loses subscribers because of this.

Poor color separation. Harsh and overbright.
It looks like an art project I would have done back then using ‘Zip-A-Tone’ clear plastic color film that sticks onto a piece of paper.

It was not sloppy editing. This was intentional, and deliberately allowed to be printed. Hundreds of people saw it and did nothing about it.

Yep.

The MSM really thinks that people are stupid.

Sloppy and pathetic, even for a liberal.
