Harris Says Newspapers `Colorized' Photographs, Distorting Her Makeup

On Monday, on a conservative radio talk show, Harris, now a congresswoman from Longboat Key running for the U.S. Senate, hit back, blaming newspapers for the criticism and charging that some - without saying which - altered her photographs.

``I'm actually very sensitive about those things, and it's personally painful,'' Harris said when host Sean Hannity asked about her image problems from 2000.

``But they're outrageously false, No. 1, and No. 2, you know, whenever they made fun of my makeup, it was because the newspapers colorized my photograph,'' Harris said.

She didn't explain what she meant by ``colorized.''

1. This "outrage" from a member of the party who made fun of Kerry's tan.

Remember the "call him orange" campaign? It failed, but nevertheless, Ms. Harris can take her pain and shove it where the sun don't shine.

[second edition]

50. I agree with you ! No sympathy for Ms Harris.

She played a major role in Bush's 2000 "win". I've resented her ever since for her partisan decisions in Bush's favor. She exhibited no fair play then. Whatever she gets she deserves.

[Goldom]

2. aieee pop-up craziness!!

When I opened that link the pop-up blocker clicked at least 5 times, and then one more that got through. Just as warning.

[johnfunk]

3. Colorized!

[UpInArms]

10. really?

still looks like a sleazy .25 saturday night paid for escort to me

[BlueEyedSon]

4. She should sue Clinique

[Jack from Charlotte]

40. Clinique should sue her.....

if she uses their preoducts and makes it public.

[TacticalPeek]

5. It's your wrinkly and rotten soul, dear.

You will find that's common among Bush lackeys.

[merwin]

6. Remember when OReilly blamed Franken for 'altering' his picture to make

his face look splotchy and ass-ugly? Seems very similar :)

[conservdem]

55. I remember. It did seem like an altered picture.

Did Franken ever explain why the photo looked as it did?

[merwin]

70. Partially lighting, partially lack of makeup on O'Reilley.

Most of it is that his face resemble's a horse's ass though.

13. "Beauty is..

as beauty does." Ya think, Katherine?

[Greeby]

14. And

Ugly is as ugly does, and boy, she sure knows how to do ugly

[Lefty48197]

15. I remember when they used to colorize Tammy Faye Baker's face too

boy were they cruel!

[graywarrior]

16. Hey, I've seen her close up and in person

It ain't no photo colorization.

[LiberalFighter]

17. Notice how she stated "newspapers" as in plural instead of newspaper??

Must be a conspiracy against her.

[grannylib]

18. what a laugh...poow wittow baby...i could give a shit about anyone

"colorizing" what she obviously troweled on (you looked like shit on TV too, bitch)i'm more concerned about the
"disappearized" VOTES in your state and our nation that put an unelected moron into the White House.

[meganmonkey]

19. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Hmph. She sucks.

:P

[Walt Starr]

20. Once somebody taught her how to apply makeup, she's not so bad

I think Smirko the Clown taught her how to apply makeup originally.

[ignatius 2]

21. Boo-fucking-hoo..have you seen the paper today? 14 more DEAD soldiers

caused by the bastard you cheated to get in the WH. Stick your makeup up your ass and get a life and a conscience,hagatha.

[truthisfreedom]

22. hmm. my local paper (star-tribune) always has terrible colors on their

front page. i think it's just the nature of newsprint color... it's kinda crappy. i don't know if i'd call the effect "colorization" but it certainly distorts anything that looks saturated... someone needs to explain to her that she needs to wear her makeup as well as possible to beat all of the bad things that can happen via video and newsprint.

[MisterP]

23. no, she always looks like Frank N. Furter

[saigon68]

24. her face looks like my rear end

Blotchy with a few red Zits.

[Olney Blue]

25. Looks like I actually agree with Rove....

dump her.

[VegasWolf]

26. Aren't those spots facial herpes? nt

[henslee]

27. Glad she is preoccupied with such lofty thoughts... Geaaadd!!

[eShirl]

28. I guess the live TV coverage was colorized, too

either that or they were showing Bozo reruns

[Mountainman]

29. Cruella doesn't like the taste of repuke character assination medicine.

They dish it out so well but taking it is another story.

Poooooooooooooooooooooooooor Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaby

[UTUSN]

30. & of Course, Make-up Is a Credential for Senatorship n/t

[GRLMGC]

31. yeah yeah yeah

just embrace your lack of makeup skills!

[Cha]

32. I thought the bushits said she

couldn't run for the Senate?

[ngGale]

33. Well, like the old saying in the South goes ...

beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes to the bone. :think:

Bwahahaha - :rofl:

[Dulcinea]

34. After 40, you get the face you deserve.

Enough said.

[BoneDaddy]

35. hmmm

All I can say is that there is only so much perfume you can spray on dogshit to make it smell better, but you can only go so far.

[dryan]

36. I attended several....

functions in Tallahassee while she was Secretary of State (pre-2000 election) and she did overdo it on the foundation (totally wrong shade!)and I think she went to an image consultant when she was getting ready to run for Congress because I saw her during the campaign for her first run in 2002 and she had toned it down a lot.

[arwalden]

37. Whaaaah!

[rodeodance]

38. whow--and people say Aug. is a slow news month.

[The Night Owl]

39. Ha! Harris is obviously self-destructing.

Harris must be insane with rage at the Bushies stabbing her in the back after she so faithfully served them. Of course, Harris is too loyal a servant to ever direct her anger at the Bushies who betrayed her, so she instead lashes out at the media.

[raccoon]

41. You gotta have a thick skin to be in politics.

Sounds like the voter-list cleansing bitch needs to toughen up.

She makes me sick. I hope to God she loses.

[stanwyck]

42. Bush is now claiming

that newspapers have been "stupidizing" his statements.

[Vickers]

71. Bwahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!

Aw man!

[hootinholler]

43. Colorized??? This is a job for...

SWAMP RAT!

-Hoot

[RobertSeattle]

44. Good gawd woman, shut up, you are just asking for it!

Saw this a J-Walk's blog:

[0007]

45. Vanity is LBN now days?

[MissMarple]

46. Newspapers, TV networks, cable channels (including FOX), magazines...

Yup, it must have been a liberal conspiracy just to pick on little old Kathy. :eyes:

[sakabatou]

47. Poow, Poow, Hawwis...

Serves you right

[RobertSeattle]

48. Why does Harris' .gov website hate Katherine Harris?

http://harris.house.gov/Photos/?PhotoID=16771

[genieroze]

76. Oh my, that's a real picture. Looks like * bullshit rubbed off onto her.

[rocktivity]

49. Rocknation says Harris "Colorized" Flordia Voting Rolls

Distorting the voting rights of those who were not convicts.

:headbang:
rocknation

[Richard Steele]

53. Actually, I think she was working to DE-colorize those rolls...nm

[Fluffdaddy]

51. Nice rock hard body though for her age. give me some of that...baby

[antonialee839]

52. Any colorization of Harris would be an improvement.

[SkipNewarkDE]

54. What a dumb f-ing c-word

So I guess the TV media colorized her too in the video segments? She's f-ing insane.

[corkhead]

56. Rep. Harris Says Papers Doctored Photos

TAMPA, Fla. -- Congresswoman Katherine Harris, who is running for a U.S. Senate seat next year, has again accused some newspapers of doctoring photos to distort her makeup as a way to poke fun at her.

In an interview on a conservative radio talk show Monday, Harris said some newspapers -- she didn't say which -- altered photos during the 2000 presidential election recount when she was Florida secretary of state.

Democratic commentators and late-night talk show hosts lampooned Harris for her liberal use of cosmetics as she took center stage in the recount.

"They had trucks in Florida bringing the ballots to Tallahassee," Jay Leno quipped at the time. "In fact, it's the same trucks they used to bring the makeup to Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris."

60. they must've gotten wind

that the rethugs won't vote for her 'cause she's nasty looking and looks like a freak.

She looks like a bad transvestite.

[Richard Steele]

63. Someone dug up an older photo of her:

[Richardo]

64. Pfft!

:spray:

[johnfunk]

74. BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA! Congressman Katherine Frank'n'furter

[AgadorSparticus]

78. bad transvestite is right on the button!! lol

She IS freakish looking and I hope she tanks because of it. I can't stand this woman.

[LaurenG]

59. Will someone please tell her she's a nasty person

The reason she photographs so poorly is because the camera is capturing her soul. Basically shes an ego maniacal clown. May all her "fruits" hurry back to haunt her.

[MaineDem]

61. Welcome to DU

Glad you're here but this is a duplicate of an earlier thread.

:hi:

[corkhead]

67. Oops, sorry about that,

I hadn't seen this before and I tried to search for it before I posted, but I am getting errors in the search function.

:shrug:

I'm still relatively new at this, thanks for letting me know without flaming me...

[Generic Other]

62. How do you doctor live footage on FAUX, CNN et al?

Give me a break. We all saw the lipstick lizard with our own eyes. Now she wants to morph into Miss America?

[yankeefanatic3]

65. Oh please!

Granted I think it's immature to criticize someone on how their appearance, I think she's full of it.

[Jokerman]

66. I know how she feels.

Someone has altered every photo taken of me in the last five years to make my hair look gray and make me look 30 pounds heavier. That can't be the way I really look, can it?

[Javaman]

68. she's a member of the morter and spackle crew...

face it, ass-harris, you are butt damn ugly. There is not make up job short of a complete face lift (need a fork lift for that one) that could save your kisser from public ridicule.

Evil people are uglier. Fact of life.

colossal failure*

[marbuc]
