Did NBC News edit photos of Lia Thomas to make him look more feminine? Looks that way and here’s the proof…

An eagle-eyed viewer noticed the the other day that there was something peculiar about the photos of Lia Thomas in an NBC News report that aired on the Today Show.

Now in case you didn’t notice it, check out how smooth they made the face of Thomas in one of the photos versus the untouched photo:

If I’m not mistaken there have been media scandals in the past about news agencies touching up photos, so much so that I thought it was completely off limits these days. But apparently not if you are supporting a dude unfairly competing against women.
