Please Tell Me ABC News did NOT Use Fox's Altered Pic of Trayvon

http://abcnews.go.com/US/zimmerman-wept-jail-court-appearance-murder-charges-trayvon/story?id=16123136#.T4eRiqvgHdI

The image of Trayvon in his hoodie is in the first few seconds of the broadcast, next to a newer picture of Zimmerman.

I hope it's my computer screen, or maybe a bad video, but I swear it looks like the altered image Fox News was using, where Trayvon's face looked dark and splotchy.

1. I have read that the darker photo is the original,

and that the lighter photo with the perfect skin is actually the photo-shopped one. It looks like the Miami Herald was the first to use the darker photo: http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/03/22/2708960/trayvon-martin-a-typical-teen.html

2. Izzat you, Frank?

What you claim you "read" is exactly what posters at the Conservative Cave and other RW websites are claiming to absolve Fox and 'prove' that the lighter photo is the doctored one.

The problem with your link is, first, that it's not a Miami Herald photo at all--it's attributed by the Herald to Mario Tama / Getty Images. And second, it is NOT an original photo of Trayvon--it's a Getty photo of an image on a poster used in a protest--as even the Herald caption clearly indicates.

Your bringing the RW talking points here is appreciated...NOT.

3. I don't know who Frank is,

but if you do a Google image search of Trayvon Martin, plenty of pictures are available. Compare them to the light-skinned, unblemished, obviously manipulated picture.

**** you for suggesting that I am "bringing the RW talking points here".

Frank has become so ingrained into what the DUmmies have for a brain that he's the answer for any question. A mole...frank. An opinion that goes against the hive...frank. A nugget of truth in the land of liars...frank. It's almost come to the point that he's like Taco Bell in the movie Demolition Man.

I was about to say the same thing. They seem eager to "whiten" him up, don't they?

That picture has so much airbrushing done to it, it doesn't even look close to being real.

Hell, even his 'hoodie' looks like it's been touched up.

that picture was a ploy to make people think the thug was an innocent little boy. As we can see, the douchegobblers fell for it. Yeah, you bunch of liberal inbreeds. You believed the whole thing, you bunch of knob sucking, sack sucking, douchepolishers.

This has nothing to do with Zimmerman's guilt or innocence or if Trayvon was a wannabe thug or just your regular ordinary everyday kid. I have to say, at least Trayvon's dad seemed to love him and was around. Instead of being a baby daddy.

All the pics they are showing of him is when he was younger. None have been current. A lot of things can change in a short amount of time. And the media is playing on this kid being a 12 year old innocent boy. I'm not saying Zimmerman is innocent (or guilty) either, but the media is trying everything they can to convict the guy without knowing all the facts.

They lived a couple of hundred miles apart, IIRC.

He was staying with him during his suspension. If his dad didn't give a shit, he wouldn't have been there. Do any dad's here who are divorced from their kid's mother live in the different city or even state than their children?

Edited to add: when I was in high school my Dad lived in Omaha (where I'm originally from) and I lived with my mom and step dad in Tulsa. That is more than a couple hundred miles away.

It wouldn't be the first time a kid has been shipped way off somewhere to escape trouble with the law or remove them from bad influences. It's getting quite common around here for black kids from the D.C. area (and others) to be down here living with their grandparents. Problem is they bring the thugster/gang lifestyle with them.
D.C. is a great exporter of Obama-sons.

20 years ago it might have been working but not any more.

I'm with you Gina. How the hell do ya polish a "douche"? heheheheheheheh!

The alphabet networks race baited this story big time! NBC doctored the 911 tape. ABC is the one who doctored the video! I have no idea who's idea it was to post pics of the little thug when he was 12. Ya idiot DUmb****s!

Are you morons the last to know this? Prolly not, you just want it to be the other way around. The proof is in shit cannin' the post on your own site with the truth!

Who are the racists, again?
