Time for some troof-2-powah

This is the image, as it was plastered all over protester's signs.

And this is from the original image source.,The Miami Herald (http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/03/22/2708960/trayvon-martin-a-typical-teen.html) = hardly a right-wing source.
And here is the picture now..

Understand, DUmbasses ? Your side stylized Martin, and now the altered image is being carried about as if its the original - once again, you are rewriting history to fit your agenda.

The four things I noticed immediately.
1 ) Martin's right iris has become oval shaped.
2 ) Martin's hair line and the shadow do not match. In the original the shadow was part of his hair, which is why the problem exists now.
3 ) The inside corner of Martin's left eye is huge, creating the impression that his left eye is irregularly shaped.
4 ) In the process of smoothing Trayvon's shirt, the photoshopper missed a corner.
Three more bits of evidence from just a simple inversion.
5) in the process of increasing contrast, the photoshopper went too far and distorted the lightbulb.
6) pixellation should be consistent across a single image. Martin's face is flawless, whereas the ceiling and his shoulder exibit significantly more artifcats even though the entire image is done in grayscale.
7) The photoshopper must have got bored, and neglected to smooth and sharpen this part of the image, making the ceiling and lights in the distance sharper than these. At the same time, Martin's face is sharpest of all. - Unless this picture was taken using some sort of bracketed Notch Filter effect - focusing on the nearby and the distant while ignoring middle ground - the sharpness in seemingly random locations alone proves this image was heavily retouched.
So, Fact or Faked ? I know how I'm voting...
