    And people say Trump supporters are post-factual!

    You guys are funny.

    You're so desperate to say I'm wrong that folks are now on record as saying choice of a photo is not an editorial decision, and are not addressing that we are talking about NBC's repeated use of a stock photo, and not some event photo, where they went with their best option.

    It's not the media's fault Republicans are ugly.

    We would get this a lot when George W. Bush was president. People would complain we purposely chose a photo of him looking dim-witted. YOU try finding a picture of George W. Bush that makes him look smart.

    "I mean some are giving up tremendous businesses in order to sit for four or maybe eight or whatever the period of time is."

    Wait, what?

    It's a victory for small business owners! (Why is nothing ever a victory for big business owners?)

    Enjoy screwing the assistant managers indefinitely!

    The photographers would definitely agree. In their eyes, the only time the desk spends on the photos is to ruin them with a bad crop.

    Page designers at many newspapers in 2008 (and ever since) were ordered to find pictures of Obama in which he looked angry, frustrated or confused.

    The day after Bin Laden was killed, one of the pictures used was Obama reading from the podium, refocusing his eyes, so essentially he looked befuddled or drunk.

    Not all who serve in an administration are locked into the President's timeframe.

    Would he prefer Chancellor Trump or Emperor Trump?

    Enjoy those 80-hour work weeks during the holiday season, you $32,500 per year salaried folks!

    Or even the 70-hour work weeks during football season, you $27,250 per year salaried sports writers!
