Wire Service Photos, Yet Again

On the same day that the wire services run this bizarre photo of the president, their lead story for the day shows Bush being crowded out of the frame by the black podium while he clings desperately to the edge trying not to disappear altogether.



It must be fun to be the AP photo editor. I am reminded of the cartoon "Duck Amuck" where Daffy is tormented by the animator who in the end turns out to be Bugs Bunny. Bugs ends the cartoon with the line "Ain't I a stinker! He He He."

Other interesting observations on wire service photos, here and here.
