CNN photoshops the photo of Oregon killer Chris Harper-Mercer to make him look white. Chris was the son of Ian Mercer from Great Britain and Laurel Margaret Harper. Chris lived with his mother Laurel. He posted this selfie online. But, according to Conservative Treehouse, CNN altered the image to make Harper-Mercer look white. Via Conservative Treehouse: On the left is the selfie Christopher Mercer uploaded to his social media. On the right is how CNN presented the same selfie in broadcast stories about him. Why did CNN need to change the complexion (color) of their broadcast? Why is no-one showing pictures of mom, Laurel Margaret Harper. His online profiles have been erased since the shooting.

Using Obama as a guide, having one black parent and one white parent means you're black, right? Is the press describing him as black?
Now you know why all the visual and print media outlets are showing interviews with his Irish father,and none with his black mother. The visual and print media have a long history of ignoring murders committed by blacks,and highlighting murders committed by whites. They were backed into a corner on this one because there was no way to ignore the murder,so they compromised by ignoring the mother. They are also ignoring the FACT that he was self-described on a twitter page as being a "conservative Republican" in a update that was done hours AFTER he died. Yup,no agenda at work there,is there? I'm just surprised they didn't show a Confederate flag in the background.

Not only did they lighten the image, they re-shaped his nose. CNN might be able to explain away the photo contrast, but not the photoshopping. Imagine the hoopla if Fox darkened the image of a white perp and broadened his nose.
AFAIK,they aren't describing him at all using words. They are describing him by showing interviews with his white father. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Yes. I loaded the two images in a photo editor, thinking they had warped certain features. But it wasn't that sophisticated. They whited up the image and using lightening around his nose/nostrils to give him a Caucasian nose job. Similarly, they gave him White Man Lips. And removed the large moles/birthmarks that are more unusual in actual Caucasians. The result is a change from a lighter-skinned half-black guy to a Caucasian type. I notice they're trying to portray him as a white supremacist but that would seem pretty odd when he isn't white to begin with. He was pretty dark, well beyond being a little "swarthy".
Those are good observations. Thanks. I know this guy they call ChickenLips.
Looks like the lips are thinner as well. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Has anyone notice that we have had 3 mass-murders that were black in the last few years when Obumer was suppose to bring racial harmony to Amerika? Thats not counting the murdering in the innercity every weekend.
Chicago has the equivalent of a Sandy Hook every month. Month after month. Almost all blacks. Where's the outrage? Where's the "Black Lives Matter"?
They done Michael Jackson'd him! Remember the outrage when Time magazine darkened the cover photo of OJ? I wonder if CNN is going to take a similar hit for this masterpiece?
No, they didn't give him the White Woman treatment. But I hear Caitlyn is a smash at it.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.
