Jesus H.!

In the effort to keep their heads level they left bush stable and "balanced" Kerry which made, well, figure it out for yourself.

Who the fuck planned that crap?


PS~ Probably a dupe...

2. OK Cameraman here(not on the debate though)
Edited on Thu Sep-30-04 09:51 PM by walldude
first of all, all feeds came from FAux news cameras. CSpan chose to do a split for the entire debate(good for them) It's not the cameramans fault that the president isn't as tall as Kerry, they had to give them both the same amount of headroom(the space between the head and the top of the screen) hence the difference in the shots... Oh and if you think it's easy to hold a 250 pound camera and lens and studio config steady for 90 minutes, even on a tripod you are sadly mistaken...

4. They didn't "have" to bounce Kerry so goddamned much.
They used bush as the "anchor" which had Kerry looking like Roy Jones Jr. (Prior to getting leveled this weekend, and the fight before that...) bobbing and weaving.

3. Fox staffed the cameras -- they were the "pool" team.
They zoomed in closer to Bush to make his pinhead level with someone he could NEVER measure up to.
