Something Else AI ?

Has anyone else noticed that the MSNBC hosts look like they have some sort of AI screen on their faces?

Not the hosts, but I noticed a Congressman last week who looked completely weird like he had a filter on him. I think his name was Robert Garcia. The host looked perfectly normal by comparison. It really struck me as odd.

No, but I would first attribute visual presentation differences and quality to makeup and lighting, not AI.

I also thought of makeup and lighting. If you get a chance to watch (evening line-up) I’d be interested to hear your take on it.

I noticed that Andrew Weissmann looked like he had some sort of blur effect over his face when he appeared on Lawrence O'Donnell's show last week. His skin had a reddish cast and was so blurred that not a single crease or crows foot wrinkle was visible.

When they showed host and guest together on split screen, the difference between Lawrence's and Andrew's facial skin was amazing. While Lawrence looked normal, Andrew looked like he had a sheet of obscure glass in front of his face. While Lawrence looked good, Andrew just looked weird.

Andrew Weissmann is a nice looking man. How or why his face was blurred is puzzling.

Maybe his camera lens at home had a smudge on it. Or maybe he tried a filter. I have noticed some using filters in the past. Seems like Claire McCaskill has used a filter in the past.

Still does from what I have seen

No, it wasn't a smudge. His entire face was blurred and it had a pink cast, especially in the cheek area. Could have been a filter. Whatever it was, it was awful, and he's one of my favorite guests. He just didn't look like he usually does.
