Knight Ridder articles

I was interviewed in February 2002 by Stan Choe of The Charlotte Observer for a story on the "photoshopping phenomenon" after Stan saw some of my work on FARK.com. It's a great article, which ran in several of Knight Ridder's 32 daily newspapers across the country. Unfortunately, I couldn't track down all of the actual print references, but, thanks to www.google.com, the mother of all search engines, I found two versions of the article posted online as well as the Charlotte Observer article I found through Charlotte.com. Here they are:
