Ugh, she most certainly does.

I don't even think she realizes how demeaning and sexist it sounds for her to demand that Sarah Palin be airbrushed like a supermodel.

IAWTC, and the fact that they keep insisting "the HUMAN FLAWS that EVERY HUMAN BEING HAAAAAS" and then demanding them be removed says something very, very sad about media today.

Again you can't really see it here but trust me.

Dear God, sometimes it truly is hard for me to believe this is even a real news network.

I had a friend from France visit, and happened to turn on FOX News, and he was confused because he truly and honestly thought it was some kind of satire of a news channel. Like the Daily Show.

And if you have to look so hard at the cover to see what they're complaining about (since she keeps saying you can't see it in fullscreen), doesn't that prove just how ridiculous this minuscule shit is?

Well actually, I have a subscription to Newsweek and you can totes see she has a mustache going on on this cover. And you can also see where she plucks her eyebrows, and pores, wrinkles, etc. Nobody looks good that close up. But in the end, who CARES, you know?

I've seen it myself, and I agree, I'm just saying I think even THEY know that the big deal they're making out of it is going to seem ridiculous if they actually let people look at themselves instead of flashing a small version of the pic on the screen for a few seconds

... so Sarah Palin spends all her time running around saying "OMG I'M JUST LIKE YOU!!" and that blonde chick turns around and wants her to be retouched to "get rid of the flaws normal human beings have". That makes sense!
