    Federal Judge blocks the new OT rule that would put more money in the pockets of the middle class. And Republicans - the party which really, really cares about the workers of America - cheer.

    Judge puts overtime pay hike for 4.2 million workers on hold

    Your years of experience as a page designer at a newspaper informs that opinion?

    What photos are available? Do they fit the space (vertical, horizontal)? Does the paper have a photog at the event or is it using AP or Reuters or another service? How many other pages is the designer working on at the same time? How close to deadline are you?

    The idea some page designer is thinking "Hmmm, how can I make Obama look angelic?" while he or she is cranking out pages is laughable to anybody who's seen them at work.

    It's not an editorial decision? LOL.

    OK. I guess photos are just chosen at random.

    A. There are hundreds of photos available of both Obama and Trump, including publicity photos.

    2. The angelic photos of Obama during the 2008 campaign was not happenstance

    Trump was complaining about a stock photo NBC was using repeatedly. NBC said at the meeting that they are now using a better, more flattering photo.

    Honestly, just save yourself some time and effort and just post that over and over.

    YF makes a statement once again demonstrating his ignorance regarding the media. People on this site who actually know something about how it works explain it to him. YF ignores the explanation and doubles-down on his unsupported, ignorant accusation.

    Một. As usual, your dismissal of people who have experience in the field explaining how it works says a lot about you and your self-constructed narrative.

    Dhà. The idea page designers are uniformly liberal and are trying to send that message through their choice of photos is silly.
