1. Didn’t I send you the link BFH? Check my emails.

2. If you don’t like the news…..CHANGE IT.

3. Nope. Nothing.
   Remember, I’m looking for a link to a CNN POST where I can see this picture.

4. It figures.

5. CNN will say the ‘white balance’ wasn’t adjusted properly.

6. It was the lighting that caused it. duh.

7. So CNN, what is the “nose balance” filter called? His nostrils are half the size in the “white” photo. Same for his lips.

8. As I understand it this was done by CNN during broadcast stories about him.

9. This punk would rather hear a fatboy fart than a pretty woman sing.

10. Fur, no link at either site.
    You can always email sundance; you’re certain to get a response.

    Please note sundance only said CNN used the photo in numerous reports, not that CNN had actually done the altering. Of particular interest is that it was Jim Hoft/Gateway Pundit who made the detailed observations that the nose and lips were altered, not just the skin tone.

    Maybe he’s worth contacting, too.

11. I think I saw that picture as this story was developing and it would have been at Breitbart. I didn’t have the time when this was going on to have looked much beyond that, but I am pretty sure I saw that picture.

12. Here’s the link you requested BigFurHat:

13. The only part of the picture that wasn’t altered was the big-ass glasses.

14. I’ve been doing searches for about 1/2 an hour. Cannot find anything with the “altered” image.

15. LA Times reports he had “white-supremist leanings….with very thin evidence…….surprise!

16. …another weird curiosity….before it too is scrubbed….

17. All I could find was this photo of the killer when he was a woman…

18. that is just …………..NASTY!!! ……..ughhhhhhhh…..brrrrr
    ..I need to go take a shower now….

19. You won’t find proof of its use on CNN because there is none. This has clearly been a troll op and the Conservative Tree House apparently fell for it hook, line, and sinker. A bunch of sites are making themselves look like morons right now by linking to this spurious allegation.

20. Hideous! Pass the Clorox please.

21. Carp, should be under the link Jerry M posted

22. It’s a very subtle, subliminal promotion for Stay Puft Marshmallows.

23. Sorry.

24. Also, on the “lighter” image, his several moles on the left side of his face (right side of picture) are mysteriously gone !

25. If Obozo had a son. . . . .

26. id like to actually see the broadcast in question!!! why does no one have it?

27. Because it doesn’t exist

28. Brian Setler of CNN said that CNN has not run any pictures of the killer. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2015/10/cnn-alters-photo-of-umpqua-killer-chris-harper-mercer-to-make-him-look-white/

29. That’s a horrible photoshop, btw. Wow. lolol

30. It wasn’t like in that picture. Duh. I’m not saying they ran it but like sources don’t take away moles and birthmarks. That picture was altered. By who I don’t know.

31. Look at his nose!!!!! You are fooling yourself.

32. I posted after you, and you deserve the credit for this observation.
