With all that "concern" about Kerry's ill-fated tanning adventure, |
|
Didn't Bush come off as a bit orange?
May have just been C-SPAN, but I did see that the lighting did make Kerry seem slightly pale or a very mild blue tinge.
I did flip to other channels to see, and saw a variety of shadings as I went from one station to another.
BUT, Kerry was not "orange".

1. Kerry wasn't orange, but Bush was |

This was obvious from the C-Span split screen.
I think Rove put the talking point out there about Kerry having a tanning incident, when it was actually Bush who had a run in with the insta tanner.

5. Why aren't all the Freepers outraged - where was Kerry's Orange Face? |
|
Back on Monday/Tuesday they were so certain that Kerry would look orange at the debate and be embarrassed - Drudge/Limbaugh/Hannity/etc didn't lie to them did they?

6. I noticed three interesting things |
|
I watched on C-Span (thought FoxNews managed the camera pool) 1.) The color balance on Kerry's camera was definitely adjusted 'cooler' to give him a pale, almost blue--as you note--appearance, compared to Bush*'s warm color. 2.) Bush*'s camera was adjusted to make him look the same height as Kerry. 3.) When in split screen mode, the Bush* side was slightly larger (horizontally) than Kerry's. I thought I was seeing things, then I actually checked with a ruler. It was like 55-45.
Subliminal ploys? Who knows. It didn't help the stupid chimp anyway.
