It used to be if you went to this Netscape/CNN page and right clicked on the image of George and Laura Bush you would see this filename:
http://cdn-channels.netscape.com/cppops/features/n/ne_election5/i/asshole.jpg
The graphic now leads to a page not found, and they have changed the graphic file name to: georgelaura135.jpg.
Too bad for them Wizbang sponsor TabloidColumn has a cached version of the page with the asshole.jpg graphic name highlighted.

Update (Kevin): Michelle Malkin catches another CNN hidden editoral comment in this picture: moron.jpg.
hope you all like living in racist homophobic jesusland… 50,000,000 Elvis fans can’t be wrong, but 50,000,000 dumb Americans can be.
Hope you all are happy with a bankrupt treasury, a jobless outsourced economy and a foriegn policy that invites every fundamentalist whackjob to strap a bomb on their chest.
Wait. You mean those aren’t his screen-names?
I’m amazed.
Aren’t Lefties fun people? I love them. Really. I just don’t want them in power. I’m not big on religion, but I’d rather live in Jesusland than La- La Land.
I’m actually looking foward to 2008 already. Can you image how much more babid the Leftie moonbats will be by then? And if you though Howard Dean’s scream was wild wait till you hear Madame Hillary’s. It will be the first time the Democrat Party nominates a Cow for president. LOL. I can’t wait.
Texpose.. This is the pharmacist at Walgreens..
Tried to call you but your online. Your Meds are ready.
rapid not babid. But maybe the Lefties are babid, too.
rabid not babid. But maybe the Lefties are babid, too.
I cannot WAIT for 2008! The party of Michael Moore and Whoopi Goldberg will nominate Dear Hillary, and Guiliani and McCain will send her miserable ass packing. If you think 2004 will be a mandate, just wait for 2008!
Please stop blaming this on CNN. They had nothing to do with it. I don’t know that it was Netscape’s fault, but they control the images in question not CNN.com. Claiming they are both responsible because they are both Time Warner companies is like claiming CNN is partisan because the Atlanta Hawks made a statement that is pro-Bush. You are all criticizing those who had nothing to do with the incident and creating a damaging rumor on the web.
What is wrong with given a realistic descriptive name to a picture?
This was not “CNN,” but clearly an employee disgruntled about Bush. I don’t think we should skew tiny issues like this and present them as something they are not. Stop criticizing the media and start examining the policies of your own president. Newsflash: not everything the “liberal media” reports is wrong, nor is it all simply an attempt to attack Bush. You can’t escape failure that easily.
Please don’t say “Hillary” and “ass packing” in the same sentence. You’ll turn Andrew Sullivan straight with talk like that.
People ..please
I can’t believe someone would call that picture unamerican.
In bad taste, unprofessional, biased, stupid? Yes.
Unamerican? Unamerican is not suffucuently funding our schools. Unamerican is bankrupting the country because ten years ago some a-hole ten thousand miles away said rude things about Daddy.
Calling a spade a spade might not be nice, and might be proof of the complete failure of our news media, but it’s hardly unamerican.
Come on, folks. Where is our sense of irony?
Insofar as the major media so rarely gets anything right, can’t CNN and Co. be let off – just this once – for hitting the squarely nail on the head? It is imposible for anyone nice or even normal to be a successful politician. That profession demands the most cold-hearted and adriot liars on earth.
TX
Darned awkward laptop keypads and faingers. I will write ‘adroit’ 500 times. On the other hand ad-riot liars, kind-or works in politcs too. Maybe CNN glitched and meant BASShole, and you should-a seen the one that got away!!!
TX?
What, and the FOX network isn’t biased? O’reilly is one of the worst conservative morons on television–cutting mics, kicking people out of the studio, butting in and telling people to shut up, and only interviewing Republicans and WEAK Democrats proves my point. I totally agree with “A Republican against Bush.”
You Republicans wouldn’t last a minute in California, because I would get to you first.
O’Reilly is an opinion guy, and he presents both sides when they don’t interrupt him too much and answer his questions. He interviews anyone who will come on his show. Many refuse, just as many Republicans refused, and he talks about them on the air with a derisive attitude just as much as he does the Democrats who refuse. I don’t think O’Reilly’s a brilliant commentator or anything, but he’s fairer than you presented him, and it’s not as if he claims only to be reporting news.
sorry to burst your anger bubble, guys-this was found out to be a hacked fake web page-sort of like the porn “white house.org”
