Default USA Today: "Demon Eyes" for Condi

Not satisfied with doctoring the news, now USA Today brings us this photo of Condi Rice:

OF course, the original - before the "Demon Eyes" were 'chopped in . . .

http://michellemalkin.com/archives/images/realcondi.jpg

USA Today's "apology" admits only to adjusting "brightness and contrast", but makes no mention of painting in the Secretary of State's eyes in a crude PhotoShop job:
Quote:
Editor's note: The photo of Condoleezza Rice that originally accompanied this story was altered in a manner that did not meet USA TODAY's editorial standards. The photo has been replaced by a properly adjusted copy. Photos published online are routinely cropped for size and adjusted for brightness and sharpness to optimize their appearance. In this case, after sharpening the photo for clarity, the editor brightened a portion of Rice's face, giving her eyes an unnatural appearance. This resulted in a distortion of the original not in keeping with our editorial standards.

- USA Today
Kinda gives new meaning to "Believe nothing you hear and only HALF of what you see!"
