Shock and panic swept the Time newsroom today as senior figures conceded that they had lost the war against abysmal Photoshopping. A Senior Creative Director, speaking on condition of anonymity revealed the awful truth: “Time no longer has any grip on the basic fundamentals of media production. We have people’s babysitters producing graphics for us now.”

Others tried to stem the wave of nausea by insisting that the latest photo-illustration work was “deliberately bad.”

“It’s a style,” claimed one designer, “it’s supposed to be outsidery” she insisted as she struggled to hold back the tears.
