AmericanDigest.org has just brought to my attention a gross and completely unprofessional smear campaign brought upon John McCain by none other than the photographer used by a renowned magazine that recently featured the presidential hopeful on it's cover.
The extremely left-wing photographer, Jill Greenberg, used the outtakes, or pictures they did not use for the cover, from the photo shoot to create VERY politically incorrect depictions of John McCain on her personal website, in which images of him with phrases like "It was really fun to cheat on my car-injury-disabled wife" and "I am a bloodthirsty warmonger" written above them are prominently displayed. Once AmericanDigest.org called her out on her actions, she removed the photos, but the damage has been done, for McCain, but more so for The Atlantic.
It truly sickens me that someone who is fortunate enough to have a career at that level of importance, and to work with magazines with political affluence, no less, would ever stoop so low as to manipulate photographs in such a cruel and immature manner, and display it on their website for the entire world to see just how crude a person they are.
Funnily enough, it kind of reminds me of the scandal that is tearing through Ole Miss' student body with the controversial and mean-spirited website du jour, JuicyCampus.com. It saddens me to see that across the board, young or old, in school or in an actual profession, people continue to use the Internet as a way to humiliate and make others feel bad in order to bolster their own lackluster self-esteem. I hope Jill Greenberg is still happy with her little website when she's sitting at the unemployment office.
