The Corner Misleads With Snarky Headline on John Kerry Yahoo Photo
The Corner Misleads With Snarky Headline on John Kerry Yahoo Photo
January 9th, 2007 @ 10:15 am

National Review’s The Corner has a snarky little caption today on a post about a photo of John Kerry under the Sen. Barack Obama slideshow on Yahoo Photos. Although the text from AP News describing the photo in the screenshot below clearly identifies the Senator in the photo as John Kerry, Kathryn Jean Lopez of The Corner claims that John Kerry “Can’t Get Respect” because the photo is in the Sen. Barack Obama slideshow:



This is just another prime example of the Republican Noise Machine working overtime to distort the news and diss John Kerry. A quick browse through the Sen. Barack Obama slideshow, turns up a few more Democratic politicians who seemingly can not get respect either, but Lopez fails to note that. Why? Because there is a plausible explanation for the photo under the header of Sen. Barack Obama. The 3 screenshots below are from photos on either side of the John Kerry photo in the slideshow. Note the succession of the numbers of the photos in the slideshow:

5. It's important to head this crap off
ASAP! And to let them know when we do. Quick results may not always be the norm, but this time it worked.
